help with huge wave created file from flac

[Tony Adkins]

I recently tried to burn a flac file that was corrupted, but I managed to
convert the flac to a wav file. The problem is that the wave file is huge
and contains all of the individual songs on this big wave track. Of course
I'd like to split them back up again as they would have been if the flac
file had worked. I could do this in an audio editor, of course, but it will
take a lot of time. Is there a program, preferably freeware, that can sense
the silent gaps between the tracks and split into the individual wave files?

Thanks in advance,
Tony

Yes, it's a common function in the better Wave editors.

Trouble is, it can't be relied on to get it PERFECTLY right. You have
to check. And checking takes about the same time as opening the file
in an editor and doing it manually.

Never mind, I found the answer. Too simple! Tony

The answer is, and is basically what Laurence mentioned, using an audio
editor to manually mark the tracks at the proper spot, then burn to CD.
Took about 5 minutes and now individual tracks are easily accessible. Since
I never use my audio editor for track marking or even burning, I forgot it
had these capabilities.
