Have you tried Audacity? Not sure if it's exactly what you're looking for, but I use it for just about all of my audio work.

If you are willing to fork out some cash Adobe Audition works charms and will do exactly what you want.

If you have a Mac, Garageband is available on iLife. It works very good, is cheap and is an easy way to make a song fast.

I downloaded audacity and i think this is the thing im searching for, i still have to figure out how it exactly works but i think it won't take too much time.
Thanx for your advice bye bye

if you use it (though not very professional)-windows movie maker can cut the sound up behind the video too

No, please, don't use Windows Movie Maker unless it's absolutely unavoidable.

As for Audacity vs Audition, I've used the ooold version of Audition, back when it was Cool Edit, so I can't give commentary on the current version--but if it's anything like the old version, Audacity is the far better choice. Especially since it's free.

I have downloaded Audacity and the newer of Audition, (in my opinion) has far more features and has an easier layout. Just me though.

Oh, yeah, I should have mentioned that. For any future readers of this thread, you'll need to download the LAME dll from here:
