Hi Graham,

SIGNAL sound analysis software (www.engdes.com) has an add-on program
called "Event Detector" that might be just what you want. You can find out=

all about it at http://www.engdes.com/sigwin/products/evdet/evdet.html. I
have not used it myself but have heard that it works well especially for a=

large-scale sorting of sound files like what you are facing.

Cheers,
Chris
