How to Reduce the Length of a Song in Nero

When you're recording a song on your computer, it's easy to continue recording accidentally after you finish playing. This causes empty space or background noise to appear at the end of the recorded audio file. To remove this unwanted audio and reduce the length of the song, you can use Nero WaveEditor, which is part of the Nero Multimedia Suite. Nero WaveEditor supports songs that are recorded in many different formats, including MP3, WAV, AIFF and WMA.
