Music FLAC Editor

[jmdlcar]

Hi all,

What is a good music flac editor?

Jack

[shantiq]

do you mean a tagger like puddletag or easytag ? or an editor to trim and split files add filters etc... in which case audacity is a great tool


or use command line

flac --help============================================== =================================

Usage:


Encoding: flac [<general-options>] [<encoding/format-options>] [INPUTFILE [...]]
Decoding: flac -d [<general-options>] [<format-options>] [FLACFILE [...]]
Testing: flac -t [<general-options>] [FLACFILE [...]]
Analyzing: flac -a [<general-options>] [<analysis-options>] [FLACFILE [...]]


general options:
-v, --version Show the flac version number
-h, --help Show this screen
-H, --explain Show detailed explanation of usage and options
-d, --decode Decode (the default behavior is to encode)
-t, --test Same as -d except no decoded file is written
-a, --analyze Same as -d except an analysis file is written
-c, --stdout Write output to stdout
-s, --silent Do not write runtime encode/decode statistics
--totally-silent Do not print anything, including errors
--no-utf8-convert Do not convert tags from local charset to UTF-8
-w, --warnings-as-errors Treat all warnings as errors
-f, --force Force overwriting of output files
-o, --output-name=FILENAME Force the output file name
--output-prefix=STRING Prepend STRING to output names
--delete-input-file Deletes after a successful encode/decode
--keep-foreign-metadata Save/restore WAVE or AIFF non-audio chunks
--skip={#|mm:ss.ss} Skip the given initial samples for each input
--until={#|[+|-]mm:ss.ss} Stop at the given sample for each input file
--ogg Use Ogg as transport layer
--serial-number Serial number to use for the FLAC stream
analysis options:
--residual-text Include residual signal in text output
--residual-gnuplot Generate gnuplot files of residual distribution
decoding options:
-F, --decode-through-errors Continue decoding through stream errors
--cue=[#.#][-[#.#]] Set the beginning and ending cuepoints to decode
encoding options:
-V, --verify Verify a correct encoding
--lax Allow encoder to generate non-Subset files
--sector-align Align multiple files on sector boundaries
--replay-gain Calculate ReplayGain & store in FLAC tags
--cuesheet=FILENAME Import cuesheet and store in CUESHEET block
--picture=SPECIFICATION Import picture and store in PICTURE block
-T, --tag=FIELD=VALUE Add a FLAC tag; may appear multiple times
--tag-from-file=FIELD=FILENAME Like --tag but gets value from file
-S, --seekpoint={#|X|#x|#s} Add seek point(s)

or sox to splice

sox 1.flac 2.flac final.flac

TO DOUBLE VOLUME ON A TRACK

sox 1.flac newflac.flac gain +6

change 6 to any number you want higher or lower

Thanks for the info. I'll get back if I have any problem.
