[Dixielandjazz] Inserting breaks in a continuous track (was Lil Hardin Armstrong query.)

Dear Bert

Using the free program "Audacity" it is fairly easy to separate a continuous 
track into various parts, but it is a rather tedious business as each part 
has to be saved individually, so that the CD-burning program can recognise 
each part as a separate entity.
So it goes like this: Make a file of the original single track. Open this in 
Audacity. Insert the first break, save this as the main file, then delete 
everything after the break. Save the new single part. Delete this single 
part and open the new main file. Delete the first part and insert the second 
break, save this over the new main file, repeating these procedures ad 
nauseam until the the original file has been split into its component parts 
and each has been saved separately.
These parts can then be assembled into a CD-burning program and copied to a 
blank CD.

Kind Regards

Bob Smith
