I want to grab some sound bites out of several mp4 files, so I extracted the audio portion into wav files to make editing easier.
After trying several Google searches, it looks like audacity is the audio editor of choice, but I'm finding it very difficult to work with. Notably I am not able to make a selection with finer granularity than a full second.
I don't understand,... I can select very fine-grained selections in Audacity. You probably need to zoom in on the track so you can position the cursor properly, but once you've done so, you can select very precisely.
Are there any simple audio file editors that you can recommend? I'd like to find something more intuitive than audacity, but am not having much luck with my searches using yum and google.
If you're only interested into cutting out part of the audio, ffmpeg can extract certain intervals and I think it has a finer granularity.
