  So far, I've been writing scripts+makefiles
to drive SoX.  I use
 the SoX "trim" effect to split out sections, process the sections
 indivdually, and rejoin them (often with fade); but I'm wondering if
 there's something similar for command-line users which already
 exists.  
 hey eric... you should definately look at Mixer4, written by Grekim

Hi Peter, source code doesn't appear to be available, nor plugin
(LADSPA/LV2) support...

(I'm a Free Software supporter and refuse to rely on software I
 can't inspect or improve)

Hi Eric,

Feel free to email me.  Currently in Mixer4 there is a trim feature
to remove time off the beginning and and of a track.  All automation
times stay relative to the untrimmed track as you'd expect.  I've been
wanting to add a feature to extract audio from within very large
soundfiles. This should not be hard to do and if it would be helpful to
you I could work on it very soon.  The program started out without
effects, but I quickly became excited about coding them and I am very
happy with them.  They are all 64 bit double precision.  As mentioned
the software is not open source, but is as bug free and professional as
I can make it.  Cheers.  Grekim
