I was wondering whether I could use audacity and whether I would bwe able to record the intire book from the tape recorder there and then palce some type of marks at the beginning of the important sections, I am using the stable version of audacity I believe it is version 2.4. If this is not possible Iwas wondering what other program you'd recommend to finish this task. If it is possible to do this in audacity I would apprciate suggestions on how to do so. Many thanks.
