That's exactly what I'm saying. It's essentially cutting and pasting although doing so does create "pops" that will have to be fixed by cross-fading but that's not a difficult thing to do.

I'm not familiar with the capabilities of your Tascam unit but if I had to guess, I'd guess 'no' based on what it looks like unless it comes with some kind of editing software.

I use Pro Tools but there are other choices out there. I'm not real familiar with all the other DAWs so maybe others can weigh in on their experiences with those. For your needs, Pro Tools would be overkill, not to mention expensive. I believe there are some free options out there as well, but I have no experience with those.
