Audacity is a powerful sound editor. In the course of using it, I have needed to split long speeches into tracks so that they are CD-friendly. Several existing plugins allow for this but there is no minimum length on the tracks.
Suppose that the speaker interacts with someone from the audience for a couple of minutes. Most silence-finding plugins would result in several dozen tracks during this relatively short exchange. In order to rectify the situation, we need the ability to define a minimum track length to go along with all of the other options.
