There is no pasting within the steps I shared below, just the keystroke Control+P as in papa and that keystroke will open up a new window with the audio that was copied or cut to your clipboard. Just try it and you will quickly see.

Do I need to go to File and then New first before pasting, or will Goldwave do it automatically? From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Smiling?

Cut it to clipboard using Control+X. Now use the keystroke Control+P and this will place that audio you currently just copied to clipboard, into its own new file. Save and name it whatever you are after naming it. close the window with the keystroke Control+F4 and not Alt+F4 because Alt+F4 will close all the open windows instead of that single window. Now Control Tab back to the original file window (if it doesn't automatically place your focus there all on its own) and highlight the next bit of audio you are interested in doing the same thing you just did with the example up above. Giving you these steps entirely based upon the example you shared below. -----Original Message----- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of john riehl Sent: Sunday, September 20, 2015 8:32 AM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: RE: Goldwave question Hi, colin. This is what I want to do. I have a long file that contains someone chanting Bible portions in Hebrew; the person breaks down the pieces into sections which different people are supposed to read. What I want to do is, for example, have a file for Genesis chapt 1 v1-6, another file for Genesis 1 v6-15, etc, so I can send separate files to each person, rather than one huge file and let them figure out where their particular part comes. I don't want to create separate tracks of a single file; I want to mark sections of a long file and put each section into a separate file that I can send out.

If you require to save the whole file as tracks, such as if you've a concert and would like to save each item as a track, this is when the cue-markers become useful. In this case, you ensure first you are at the start of the file, once you begin to work with cue-markers, you cannot make any changes to the file, so ensure first, all edits Etc. are finished and the original file saved. also, be aware it is always wisest to work with files uncompressed, i.e when still in their .wav (or other) formats, not .mp3 or other compressed types. The more processing a file has undergone, i.e compresion and de-compression, the more sound degredation will occur and once quality has been lost, it cannot be retrieved. So, having made sure the file is as you want it, go to it's start and insert the first cue-mark, control with q. Now go on through the file, stopping where the next cue-mark is to be placed, I always first make sure by placing a start marker i.e left bracket then ensuring cursor is at start marker by pressing my home key, then issue control with q. Continue until you've reached the start for the last track and issue the control with q. Now, you are ready to split the file into it's items. In the edit menu, go to the cue-markers function which I think is open menu and cursor up to the sub-menu, arrow right into the submenu and down to the split file. Note, you can change cue-markers as there is a list of the ones you have set but I strongly advise keeping it simple for now, go to the split file within the menu. I cannot remember the tabs here, think they are self-explanatory, eventually you will find a save button, enter on this and ensuring you save into a location you want, allow it to work. You should end up with a set of tracks, what their names will be depends on how you process these tabs, but I tend to make then save as Track nnn (the first being 001) into a folder set aside for such matters. Then (I use Winamp) play the folder ensuring you have saved what you intended, if happy, close the file from which you saved the tracks but unless you want to keep the cue-markers, don't save the file. Cue-markers cannot be saved in a file other than, so far as I am aware, .wav format, if you try and save them, GW will warn you no way! but they can be saved in a file of the same name if I recall rightly, with the exdtension of ".cue" this will happen in the same folder in which the file from which you extracted the tracks, is saved. Remember, I am using GoldWave V5.70, the last which works with WindowsXP how V6.anything differs, as of now, I know not for though I have V6.14, have not yet installed on my W7 machine. __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 12282 (20150920) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 12285 (20150921) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
