Cutting up a sound file into individual clips

Hi there,

I would greatly appreciate any help anyone could provide on the following issue I have with Adobe Premier Pro.

I have a soundtrack (.wav) file that was seperated from a movieclip. All I need to do now is cut the soundtrack into lots of seperate sound files and save them individually.

These sound clips will then be used as verbal answers to user responses on an interactive web site.

I just can't seem to figure out how to cut different section of the soundfile up.

I just want to select a certain area of the soundclip and export ONLY that selected section.

Please can anyone shed some light on this for me as I can't seem to do it right and have never used Premier before.

Kind regards,

Jason P

All you need to do is cut the sound file using the razor blade tool(Not sure what the right name is for this but it looks like a razor blade in the tool bar) Place it over the place where you want to split the 2 bits and cut it.

Then highlight the clip copy it and paste into a new sequence, then export audio only to whatever format you want.

Hope this helps

or just set your work area and export just that.
