Another possible option is AudioBookCutter. I have downloaded it but have
not tried it yet. Someone on the Victor Reader Stream mailing list
recommended it to automatically detect breaks in speech near the lengths you
specify and make the splice there.

Hi Darrin.
Thanks for your help. If i use the automatically split option, is there
any way of goldwave automatically detecting pauses and splitting based on
when there is a pause? or would i have to use the manual procedure you
described?

Mo,
This could easily and quickly be done with GoldWave. Goldwave will
either automatically split the file into segments whose lengths you
specify (regardless of what's happening at the split point) or you can
manually go in and drop que points where you want the file split. This
is pretty quick and easy since you can jump to any part of the file
quickly. For example, if you wanted the file split up into roughly
thirty minute segments, you could simply jumt to, say, 29 minutes and
thirty seconds and start listening, dropping your que point during a
pause or quiet part of the file. Then repeate at 59:30, 1:29:30, etc.
I did this for a two and a half hour lecture series I recorded and
managed to get the entire lecture split into approximately 5 minute
segments in somewhat less than an hour. Another nice feature of GoldWave
is that you can name your que points and tell the program to split the
file at the que points and use the que point names as the split file
names.

Hi All.
I'm looking for a program that will convert a long MP3 file, say 8 hours
in to manageable segments. Would goldwave do this? I want something
ideally that will detect pauses and split based on when a pause occurs
so for example if i'm converting it in to half hour sections and there's
a pause after 30 minutes and 3 seconds, it'll split where the pause is
and not in the middle of a word. does anything like this exist and
that's accessible? I don't mind using the jaws curser.
Best,
Mo.
