For basic recording of stuff intended for CD I quite like using CDWave
which is free and does what it does very well.


CD Wave is Shareware.

http://www.milosoftware.com/cdwave/download.html
"Note that CD Wave is shareware. This means you can use it in any
non-commercial way. You can try it for a period of one month (31 days).
If you wish to continue to use it after that period, you must register.
Instructions on how to register are also in the help file."


Registering makes it shareware? Is there a cost to this registration?

http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/acf....php#Shareware
"Sharewa commercial software that can be downloaded, often for free.
Payment is required for legal use of the software beyond the trial
period. Some authors use the honor system; more commonly, code is
included to prevent the use of some or all functions if payment is not
made in accordance with the shareware agreement."


This says something about paying...do you have to pay for CD Wave after
the 30 days. You look it up. I don't want to.

Note: Mike Looijmans uses the HONOR system (CD Wave is not crippled when
the 31 day trial period expires). See:

Then it is a donation?

Maybe it has malware too?


No. No malware. I've been using CDWave for years--and I paid for it. Is
there anything wrong with it? Generally speaking, no, although there are a
few places where it could be more friendly.

The main problem with CDWave is that it works only with .wav files. To edit
mp3s, I use mp3DirectCut, but this latter doesn't show the entire file at
once like CDWave does. Another alternative is WaveRepair--also shareware.

As far as I know, there is no freeware that will show the entire file at
once, and will allow fine editing at the same time.
