The features of the program are not numerous - but everything you need is here:

When it was done - I decided to give it away for free - to alleviate some of the pains I had.īelow are some screenshots of the program. The added benefit of writing one myself, of course, is that it has exactly the features I need - and none that I don't. This is why when I needed the plain vanilla merging utility, I could not find one that was free - and decided to write one myself. I've discovered that while all of these programs perform the task well, they also contain lots of other features, making them too complicated for the tasks.

There are many great programs to achieve this, but very few of them are actually free. This need may arise for various reasons: merge ripped CD tracks into one, combine multiple chapters of an audiobook, etc. It is often necessary to merge multiple sound files into one recording.
