Hi Rich, assume that your first song starts at 1 minute and ends at two minutes, and the second song starts at 3 minutes and ends at four minutes. Initially the cursor is at time zero, and the track is selected You start playback, and press [ and ] at one and two minutes to select the first song, and export the selected audio. At this stage, there's a selected time range going from one minute to two minutes. If you press right arrow, then the time range is deselected, and the cursor is at the time two minutes, the end of the fist song. You can now start playback from two minutes, and press the [ and ] keys at 3 and 4 minutes to select the second song. Does this make any more sense?

I want to advance to the next song by moving ahead and listening and resetting the brackets.
