Yes, you can do that with Goldwave. There are also specific programs for splitting mp3's, but if you are proficient in Goldwave, just use your time filemarkers and make separte files out of the segments. - Original Message - From: "Mobeen Iqbal" To: Sent: Monday, May 03, 2010 12:0

You might consider mp3 Direct Cut. It has the advantage of not converting between .wav and .mp3 and works on the file in the native mp3 format. I believe you can get it on the Jaws-users.com page and even a tutorial. -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mail
