Fission 2.1.0 - Streamlined audio editor.. (Shareware)

Posted: 02 Nov 2012 08:59 PM PDT

Fission can crop and trim audio, paste in or join files, or just rapidly split one long file into many—it's streamlined for fast editing. Plus, it works without the quality loss caused by other editors, so you can get perfect quality audio even when editing MP3 and AAC files.

If you need to convert formats, Fission can do that too! You can rapidly export or batch convert files to the MP3, AAC, Apple Lossless, FLAC, AIFF, and WAV formats.

Key Features:

Edit MP3, AAC, Apple Lossless, and AIFF files with no quality loss
Quickly split a long audio file into smaller files
Remove unwanted content, such as commercials, from your audio file
Re-arrange audio in a single file, copy audio from one file to another, or merge with a quick drag and drop
Create great-sounding MP3 or AAC ringtones for your cell phone.

Version 2.1.0:

Fission is now fully Retina-ready!
MP3 export now supports both constant bit rate (CBR) and variable bit rate (VBR).
AAC export now supports High Efficiency encoding (HE-AAC).
Files can now be dragged from iTunes into Fission's Start window.
Fission can now import audio from .mov, .wma, .avi, .mp4 files, and more.
A bug which could trigger an alert when closing an unsaved document has been fixed.
Album artwork now properly appears in the file's icon when available.
Fission now writes iTunes-style tags to AIFF files, non-standard though they may be!
Using "i" and "o" to create a selection has been improved, allowing playback while creating the selection.
Any file can now use the "Save As Chapterized AAC" option, regardless of its current file format or number of clips present.
Fission's Save dialogs now properly handle file extensions.
Files imported via QuickTime now only allow for an Export, to avoid overwriting the original file.
In addition to the iTunes dragging noted above, the Start window now takes drags of all document types Fission can open.
An issue where converting file formats erroneously produced CBR files (despite claiming to make VBR files) has been corrected.
A problem where the Undo menu item unhelpfully said "Undo Button" for several actions has been fixed.
The Start window no longer appears than immediately disappears on launch, when Fission is opening to a file. It also no longer immediately reappears when closed if no other windows are open.
The delete and backspace keys now both perform the same expected functions.
Issues caused by Fission overzealously writing its file icon, such as other applications not correctly changing the icon at a later point, have been removed.
Erroneous errors which could pop up when cancelling transcoding, exporting, or saving have been fixed.
When an error occurs during Batch Conversion, the Batch Converter continues with the rest of the files after the error dialog is dismissed.
Closing the Start window no longer immediately re-opens it.
"Remove & Split" has been renamed to "Remove and Split" in the Clip menu.
Support for several additional sample rates (88.2, 96, 176.4, 192 and 352.8 kHz) has been added to ALAC, FLAC, AIFF, and WAV.
Chapterized AAC files which must be converted now save to the 128 kbps 44.1 kHz stereo AAC format (instead of 192 kbps).
"Save As Chapterized AAC" is always available now, regardless of original file format or number of clips present.
Chapter images for Chapterized AAC files are now all padded to the size of the largest image.
An issue where closing an unsaved document in trial mode could still result in a corrupting save has been fixed (2.0.0a2).
"Export Selection" now features the keyboard shortcut Option-Command-E.
A new hidden preference for checking for Normalization Clipping has been added, accessible from the Debugging window.
Custom format selections for exporting and batch converting have been improved to prevent invalid formats.
Fission's accessibility for visually imparied users has been improved, correctly labeling several unlabeled elements.
Fission now supports the TLEN ID3 tag.
Fission now better handles malformed FLAC files, and supports more tag types in FLAC.
Fission can now read AAC 3gpp files.
Fission now correctly preserves creation dates when saving over old files.
