I think some of the Olympus models might be able to help you there if you’re thinking of doing the job in an automated way but then again the question comes up, is it really worth spending a couple of hundred dollars just for that when you could say connect your Minidisc to a computer’s line in and use the Total Recorder software package which looks for silent passages and can perform custom options, even the Professional Audio edition is only $35.
Of course using Total Recorder also means you have more flexibility in how MP3 files - if you want to use that format - are created, you have a very reasonable editor included if you purchase the Professional version etc, take a look at the web page at <http://totalrecorder.com> > On 8 Nov 2014, at 11:56 pm, Joe Giovanelli <joeg...@earthlink.net> wrote: > > Hello Listers, > > I don't believe I've seen this covered.
