Sound editing tools

Sound editing tools let the programmer hear sound as well as visualize it. One can cut/copy and paste sound and edit it with great accuracy. Integrating sound into multimedia project is very easy by using sound editing tools like Cool edit.

Cool edit can be used to record ones own music, voice, or any other audio. It makes us a professional as far as handling of sound is concerned. One can edit, mix the sound with any other audio and add effects to it. One can record sound from a CD, keyboard, or any other sound played through the sound card. The other feature of this software is that it can read and write MP3, which is the hot sound format in the present times. Once the recording is complete, the sound file can be converted into any desired format. In other words, there is a similarity in these editing tools-what Photoshop can do to images; Cool edit can do for sound.

Sound Forge is another professional quality sound editing tool that is used in multimedia work.
