mp3DirectCut (portable) - mp3 editor and recorder (lightweight, no re-encoding,
recording directly to mp3, cut, copy, paste, volume change, fading, normalizing, batch processing...)

I think this one will be perfect - free, easy to use, record directly to mp3, easy editing without quality loss - and portable, no install needed.

Unfortunately I don't have any solutions for automating this, but for anybody who decides to cut ads manually I would recommend using a tool called mp3DirectCut. It cuts the mp3 without re-encoding it as Audacity or ffmpeg would.

Just thought I'd mention that.

for mp3 and mp4 (aac) you could call mp3directcut (no re-encode) via foo_run, for other formats audacity .

You would still have to trim and save the samples manually.

here's the code for foo_run:

$if($stricmp(%codec%,mp3),"C:\Program Files '('x86')'\mp3DirectCut\mp3DirectCut.exe" "%_path%",$if($stricmp(%codec%,aac),"C:\Program Files '('x86')'\mp3DirectCut\mp3DirectCut.exe" "%_path%","C:\Program Files '('x86')'\Audacity\audacity.exe" "%_path%"))

Edit how? if you just want to do some cutting, splitting or fades use mp3directcut, it allows you to edit without decoding and re-encoding the files which results in more quality loss.

mp3DirectCut (https://mpesch3.de/) can join MP3 files. Other methods that were mentioned (Audacity, Reaper ...) will reencode the files - you'll loose audio quality. If you wan't to use a generic DAW without loosing quality, you'll have to export in a lossless format.

Record from which source? Using this simple program it's possible to record directly to mp3 and edit files without re-compression.
