If this exists, I’d be happy dancing forever if someone can point me in the right direction on where to find this magical program or how this can be done in Audacity. In a perfect Utopian world, this automated segmentation process would also run zero crossing on each segment as it’s cut AND would split the segments automatically into separate tracks and as a spectacular finale, would allow you to export all the tracks into separate sequential wav files (like photo editing batch file renaming does). And it’s massively time consuming.īeing fairly new to Audacity, which is a great sound editing program, I was wondering if anyone here who is familiar with Second Life and/or has had to cut up an audio file into equal segments knows if there is an automated way that Audacity can do this or if there is an external plug-in that works with Audacity that can do this.Įssentially, I’m looking for something that would measure the total time of the audio file, ask me the max length of each segment, then do a bit of math to automatically cut the wav file into equal length segments that are as close to the max length segment I entered when prompted. I’ve been doing this by hand but having a hard time creating equal segments. This is an obvious pain in the butt because you need to attempt to cut the Audacity audio file (which would be a wav file) into equal segments so the LSL script in Second Life can play the files back sequentially and without any gaps. To be on the safe side, they recommend you cut segments into 9:99 or less segments. So to play an original sound file that is seventy seconds long, you have to cut it up into seven 10 second sequential segments.

The problem is, the imported wav files must be 10 secs or shorter in length. I’m working on a project in the virtual world environment of Second Life.Īudio files (music, sound fx, etc.) can be imported into Second Life and embedded into 3d primitives and played using the LSL scripting language.

I posted this in the stable windows version forum but thought it might be good to post here as well…
