Question for the GB Tech Wizards

[lovecraft68]

My wife and I did a radio interview and when we got copies of it, they are on a CD, but problem is they put both on the same CD

So I'm trying to figure out how to copy and paste sections of this into two different audio clips.

I'm running windows 8.1 so I don't have windows media player which may have been able to do this.

Its saved to my computer as a CDA and someone said to try to convert it to MP3 and there's a crap load of listings for free programs that do this, but I've tried 2 and they don't seem to be doing what I need.

Any of the techy people here have any ideas?

my computer was windows 8 when i bought it and now it's 10, but it has always had windows media player on it. i did have to look for it, though.

It doesn't have window player and when I tried to download it, there was no version available for 8.1...another ploy to switch to 10

The wife has windows player, but of course is away for work and has her lap top with he

then you got ripped off or you're using an incomplete copy somehow because it was included with windows 8.1.

Windows Media Player isn't available for Windows RT 8.1 and Windows RT.

Any tween in your neighborhood can probly configure it for you.

You must know some.

So I went through all the apps and I do have windows media player after all somehow some of the icons were hidden(I was most likely the somehow)....but still couldn't find a way to convert.

This looks promising, thank you!

The recording industry has decided that people don't get any way to copy music any more. There used to be lots of ways, so you need to hunt down an old system and stick to that.

The movie industry keeps Blu-Ray recorders off the market, too.

I have professional audio converters for work, but I would still prefer audacity.

It'll do what ya want for sure.

I've been using Audacity for fucking about with sound files for nearly ten years, it's kickass.

Goldwave is also a nice, reasonably priced shareware sound editing program that is simple to use.
