I am in the process of transfering tapes to cd. I have a dual cassette deck on which I first make a new tape taking out what I don't want. My problem is not getting smooth transitions between songs. Sometimes I want to take out all the clapping or some of the clapping or eliminate some of the talking. Sometimes I am able to pause the tape I am recording to exactly right and other times I cannot. So, I am looking for a simple program that will allow me to do these kinds of things. It really has to be simple. I don't want a lot of bells and whistles. I just want to be able to clean it up after after I have trasferred the edited tape to cd.   

Any suggestions? I did a thread search under audio editing and didn't find anything. So, if anyone can point me to an existing thread I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,
karen
