I download large audio streams and like to unmix them to different
tracks. I like to place labels on the original track like "upbeat",
"mellow", "hard", etc. Is there any program available that will allow
me to search and select based on any given label, and separate all
those with the same label in a batch to a separate track?

I can do this with Audacity using copy and past for each individual
label selection, but it is very tedious as I can only deal with one
labeled section at a time.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.....

Thanks,

Harvey

probably not really what you want, but may be worth having a look at-
meapsoft feature extraction and segmenting software for audio:

If you don't mind going to a commercial product, Adobe Audition has a
"Save Selection" feature - select a portion of a file, then just save it
as a new file. You can also just copy it and then paste it to a new
window within Audition without closing the original file.

I'd think most advanced editors (Wavelab, Soundforge, etc.) would have
similar behaviour.

I use audacity 1.3.3-beta on linux, and here you can split the file
based on labels, into multiple files and with a single command. The
command is File-Export Multiple. You cannot, however, conditionally
select which labels have to be exported. But you have the option to
name the resulting files after the labels, so it's easy to recognize
them.

Thanks,

Harvey
