Trimming and Fading with LP Ripper (instead of Audacity, etc.)

Trimming and Fading with LP Ripper (instead of Audacity, etc.)
This Instructable is for home recording musicians, composers, songwriters, etc. who need a way to clean up the head and tail of their recordings and convert WAV files to MP3s.

Some consumer recoding systems leave unwanted count-in/metronome clicks or a silent gap a the head of the music you've recorded.

Instead of using Audacity to trim off the head and tail of my songs, I prefer to use LP Ripper.

It's a shareware (free to try) program for Windows that's intended for normal people (non-musicians) to convert their LPs and cassettes to digital files. Its sole purpose in life is to cut up a big WAV file into one or more smaller WAVs or MP3s.

Note: You must also have a codec for creating MP3s (such as FastEnc). If you already any other software that can convert files to MP3s (such as iTunes), you are probably in good shape already.
