I haven't written here much before, just enjoy the read, however I thought I'd reply to this one.

I don't think the following will do for what you're after as it's designed for WAV files and probably more for music, but it's excellent at finding the gap between tracks and then splitting the files. It applies the split immediately before the next track starts. In the past I've tried other software but it has applied the split to early so sometimes cuts the end of the previous track off (like when it's fading out).

I've used it a lot when I've recorded some of my old vinyl and cassettes onto the pc and then converted to MP3 files or burnt them to CD for listening in the car etc.

The splitting bit is freeware but you can upgrade and it does other stuff like take the hiss out or the crackles from old vinyl. I actually use other software to improve the sound quality and only use this to split the tracks.

It's simple software but effective.

WELCOME ON BOARD.

I'll have a look at this.

Voice people seem to be less well served than music people by such software.

I wonder whether there are MP3 players that will go forward and back in time segments. It painful having to hold a finder on a button to go fast forward or fast back.
