[Blindtlk] Deleting commercials in an audio selection.

I also have WavePad. I don't think control-X will work with TR.

Hello Judy and Mike,

    Try using CTRL+X instead of the Delete Key. I use WavePad from NCH Software. This program allows you to use the CTRL+X keyboard combination for deleting unwanted file segments. I'm off to clean up this morning's offerings of Ancient Voices, Sunday Baroque, and With Heart and Voice to add them to our collection of great classical music programs. Hope this helps.
