use iTunes

You can split or get "samplers" right from inside iTunes! All you have to do is this:
  • open the mp3 in the iTunes
  • get info
  • change the starting and ending times [notice: if you play the song after these changes, iTunes just ignores it, so you have to do the next steps]
  • choose "Convert to mp3 [/aiff/wav]"
  • choose the file
  • wait
  • you have a new mp3 [aiff/wav] file that contains just your selection
That's all!

use iTunes
Authored by: el bid on Jul 31, '02 07:02:55AM

It's a real shame that iTunes doesn't carry over the o-o features of Soundjam.

With SoundJam you could make multiple instantiations of the same file (not copies -- different sets of SoundJam metadata referring to the same file), and then give each instantiation a different start and stop point, thus effectively breaking a single large track into a set of separate tracks with no extra copying or processing.

Come to think of it, I haven't tried this with iTunes3. I don't suppose they could have reintroduced this feature....???
