Audio Reversal Tool

This is a Python-based GUI application that allows you to reverse audio files, with options to play both the original and reversed versions. Built using Tkinter for the GUI, pydub for audio processing, and pygame for playback, this project demonstrates audio file handling and a simple yet functional GUI for an interactive user experience.

Features

• Reverse Audio Files: Choose any .wav or .mp3 file, and the app will reverse the audio and save it as a new file.
• Play Original & Reversed Audio: Built-in playback for both the original and reversed files.
• User-friendly GUI: A clean and intuitive interface, created with Tkinter.
• Error Handling & Notifications: Informative messages guide users through actions and alert them to any errors.

Interesting Code Highlights

1. File Handling and Manipulation: Leveraging pydub, this app can load, process, and export audio files with ease.
2. Audio Playback with pygame: The app includes audio playback functionality for both the original and reversed audio files.
3. Dynamic GUI Structure: The app's GUI is split into frames with different functionalities, styled and spaced for an organized appearance.
4. Error Handling: Includes try-except blocks and messagebox notifications to ensure a smooth user experience, even when errors occur.
