Extracting Sound... v.2

Hi all,

Similar to the post "Extracting Sound", I'm looking for a way to seperate the audio from an *.avi file so that I can burn it onto CD's.

However, the nature of my problem exists in the fact that I have about 55 relatively short clips to seperate, with more clips coming as we speak (uh, in case anyone's wondering, I've been capturing key information from conducted interviews for an online video program, and would like to be able to extract the audio so that the information can be accessed by other means).

I am a novice with Premiere Pro and am well aware that I can unlink the clips and export them one by one (as I don't want one huge merged file...unless there's a way to insert track-markings in Premiere), but I'm looking for the most efficient way of doing this.

Is there anything I can use to basically dump all my *.avi files into some program that would then automatically burn just the audio onto a CD? Or am I asking for too much? :|

You can import avi files into adobe audition. It takes the video and audio into the multitrack. It should be as easy as selecting all the clips and pressing import. Then all you have to do is delete the video track and click export to CD.

And all the audio files will then be written as seperate tracks on the cd? I'll give that a try.

Thanks so much Nick!
