Perhaps instead of silence I should say "remove trailing zeros" from the track.
When ripping Wav files from CD's with Db wave converter, I wish there were a checkbox to strip the trailing silence from the end of the CD tracks. I'm NOT talking abount the DSP effect "remove silence" that attempts to remove trailing noise, I'm talking about 2 seconds of digital zero.
Depending on what software was used to burn the CD, 2 seconds is either added as a gap between songs (the correct method) or appended to the end of the track (the easy method). When the silence has been appended and then you burn the track to a new CD, the silence gets extended yet again. The best solution would be to have the option of stripping the silence off the end of tracks as they are ripped from the CD.
This process would not need a DSP effect, you just read backwords from the end of the file till you find non zero data then trim the end leaving perhaps 10 trailing zeros.
What do you guys think?
