  <title>Split an audio track</title>

  <p>You can split a single audio track into multiple tracks when you put
  together an audio project.</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Start an audio project and add the tracks you wish to use.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Select the track you wish to split by clicking on it, then click either
      <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Split Track…</gui></guiseq> or right click on
      the track and select <gui>Split Track…</gui> from the menu.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Select your preferred method of splitting the tracks:</p>
      <terms>
        <item>
          <title>Dividere la traccia manualmente</title>
          <p>This option allows you to select the exact length of each new
	  section of the track manually.</p>
       </item>
       <item>
          <title>Split track in parts with a fixed length</title>
          <p>Use this method to split the track into multiple sections of equal
	  length.</p>
        </item>
        <item>
          <title>Split track in a fixed number of parts</title>
          <p>This method allows you to split the track into a set number of
	  sections, all of which will be of the same length.</p>
        </item>
        <item>
          <title>Dividere la traccia per ogni silenzio</title>
          <p>Select this method for <app>Brasero</app> to auto-detect silences
	  in the recording and to split the track at those points.</p>
        </item>
      </terms>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Proceed to split the track by clicking <gui>Slice</gui>.</p>
      <note>
        <p>If you try to split a track into a section less than six seconds
        long, the new section will be padded to make it 6 seconds long. <!--If
        you try to split a track which is under six seconds long in
        <app>Brasero</app> version 3.0.0, the track splitter will not work.--></p>
      </note>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click <gui>OK</gui> to confirm your track splits and apply the changes.</p>
      <note>
        <p>You can split and merge the same track as many times as you like
        while you are viewing the split track dialog. Once you confirm your
        track splitting by clicking <gui>OK</gui>, you will no longer be able to
        merge the sections you have already split off. To revert the changes,
        remove the split sections of the track from your project and re-add the
        track.</p>
