Hello all,

 

I have windows 11 for the desktop pc now.

 

I am hoping to do some very basic editing. I cannot seem to make Goldwave
work so I'm seeking other ways. I'm trying to avoid audacity as this program
has a larger learning curve.

 

I am seeking a way for free to split audio tracks up and also hopefully trim
off some parts at the beginning of tracks.

I am planning to split large files from zoom recordings up which are now in
MP4 format but I can convert them first to MP3 if needed to work with
Windows media player.

 

Can the newest windows media player do this? 

Can I use mp4 files and split them once inside windows media player or will
I need to convert to mp3 first?

I have a number of zoom recording files I desire to split up and retain the
good quality of the file.

 

I've also read about a free plugin called wmp trimmer plugin for Windows
media player.

Anyone used it and can it work well with a screen reader?

Is there accessibility for this plug in such as keyboard commands?

 

What other options are there for this in an accessible way for a screen
reader?

I've also read about other mp3 splitters online and free to download. But I
do not know which can be accessible with built in use of keyboard commands. 

Many editing programs rely on mouse features like drag and drop or clicking
on different sections of a visual graph to mark the places you want to cut.

 

Thanks for any advice.

 

Sincerely,

Ashley
