Music editing question

[Slimsy Platypus]

So I've found some great music tracks to use in my game but I've come to a little bit of a hurdle.


Sometimes they just don't loop well, and other times I want the track to start in the middle.  So two questions:


1. Is there any way to specify a bgm to begin at some defined place in the track?


2. What is a noob friendly music editing program that can be used to address looping issues (remove silence at beginning or end of track, use only a portion of the track, etc).


Thanks to any and all for any help!

You can loop back to the middle of a track, and this is a really good tutorial to do so. The program used in the tutorial is Audactiy. It's free and it will get you started with looping and other simple adjustments.
