Software of this type must allow the following in a window:

• Shortening of the beginning and end of an audio file
• Fade in and out
• Normalize

When saving, the name of the recording should be adopted. The previous storage location should be suggested as the storage location. Both should be confirmed with just one click.

Ashampoo failed to meet these requirements even after the ninth attempt. This concoction can still not be surpassed in terms of complexity. You'll get tired of using it quickly. Normalizing cannot be done in the same window as trimming. You can't find the fade in and fade out. And when it is saved, the recording is given the title "My new recording" if you don't laboriously re-enter it. And don’t expect that the previous storage location will be suggested, which you can easily accept with only one click. Disappointed you will discover the need to specify this each time again manually.

Ashampoo remains true to its policy of making everything as cumbersome as possible. Like Lois Gray, I don't like the fact that there is only the dark look. In earlier full versions you could still select an alternative.

Conclusion: If you don't want to be constantly annoyed when editing music files, use the freeware Audacity. The free Nero Wave Editor can also be recommended.

I will continue to use the program that I have been using for years and it looks less complicated than what is now being given away. Also, my WaveEditor doesn't have a dark look.

Can it do lossless splitting and editing without re-encoding the selected parts? If yes, what codecs are supported?
I have been looking for something like mp3DirectCut, but with ogg support for a long time.
