Magic Cutter - MP3 Editor App Reviews

I bought this app because I have mixes that are an hour long and i need to cut up the track into the individual tracks. It cuts it up easily however you hear the breaks as part of a gapless album.

Works great, Does what it says and very easy to use.

Magic Cutter is the fastest way that I know of to cut mp3 files into whatever size you want. It worked so fast compared to other programs that I had to check and see if it had saved the file. This is a Best Buy!

As Steve Jobs might say, It just works. A simple, quick and easy application to use, which produces excellent results for splitting audio files. Love it.

I love how this program splices sound files! It is clean and easy to use. I have vocabulary tracks that have many words in each track. With just a few clicks and using the split by silence option, I have all of my vocabulary words separated in clean separate files. I have also used it to make ring tones and its a breeze for that too.

The only issue is working a system to rename the file. You need to have ITUNES, your file finder and the program open so as you split it and it goes into your file finder you can rename it there and move on. Once you figure out the system its fine.

Cuts concerts into individual songs with perfect control of where and how to cut and even fades in and out if you want so it doesnt sound all cut up. You can trim individual songs too... Im going to fix all my mp3s now!

Great program. I took me a while to figure out split by count you just need to click once to set the cut. Split by silence you need to click and drag to set a start and end cut.

Ive noticed right away a problem when cropping clips and applying a fade out. The end of the clip leaves a small strip of sound without the fade out… so when you arrive at the end of the clip the volume suddenly raises to a normal level for a fraction of a second. Quite annoying since the purpose of the fade out is to achieve a smooth exit from the clip. I paid for this app (instead of using Audacity for free) just for the convenience of a slightly faster way of achieving a simple task. I hope the developer fixes this issue, otherwise I will consider asking my money back.

This app offers no features of benefit. There is no way to save your edited work into a final song that can be added to iTunes. There is no rewind or fast forward buttons that take you to the beginning or end of the file. Overall, very poor offering.

I think it works great, for someone that not real familiar with editing music files, I like it.

I installed this app to help me split podcasts. I can take excepts I like from the podcast and save them in my library. It wont convert my .mp3 to .wav or anything like that and I dont have to write a .cue file. Just click on a start-point and end-point. Easy as that! As many separate tracks as I want. And you can listen while you work to make sure it starts and stops when you want it to.

There was some verbage about it supporting wavs - well perhaps it can output to a wav? However, I tried to have it recognize a wav for splitting - the file was grayed out and it wouldnt do it - it will split mp3s it seems - but why would I want to downgrade the quality of my audio file? Disappointed..

Needed to break large MP3 files into individual songs and this app works beautifully and simply. Thanks!

This app is incredibly helpful and saves me a ton of time. I have language dialogs with long silent spaces. I was considering hiring a college student for $8 an hour to cut them all out for me. $10 one time and this app does the work for me. The great thing is that you can manually adjust the cuts as well. I find that I’m opening it for far more purposes than I originally envisioned. For a quick cut out of something, this app is a lifesaver. Three things that do bug me: 1) There is often a faint audio artifact—a little chirp at the beginning of the cuts. He ought to find a way to detect and eliminate those automatically. If I was using this for high quality music it would be a deal breaker for me. 2) It would be nice if keyboard shortcuts worked. When I’m switching between audio and video editors, it’s frustrating to hit the space bar here and have nothing happen. The same would be true with the zoom. 3) It would be nice to be able to zoom in further. This app saves me tons of time and I love it. If these things were fixed I wouldn’t have a single thing I could complain about. Either way, though, I think you’ll like it.

After playing around with it for a short bit, I was suprised to find that it is acturally easy to work with. It was relativly easy to cut clips exactly where i wanted to, and adjusting any effects to time spans. Highly recommend for any vidio needs and great for making vidios with use of photos.

It does just what it says it will do. Good app

I purchased Magic Cutter to use as a cue splitter. All audio has to be converted to AAC—a real pain in the neck. It only supports AAC and MP3. No support for lossless FLAC, OGG or APE. That said, the application is useless. When you drag an unsupported audio track into the application window there is no feedback (i.e., “this audio format is unsupported”). The window just sits there like it’s frozen. For cue splitting, buy Cue Splitter at a third of the price. Very disappointed.

Dont get any better than this!!!!
