Samplitude is the best for this kind of editing. It holds its data on
disk so it can handle big files. It helps to use a fast drive formatted with 16k
blocks, because if you remove a chunk near the beginning all the music
from that point has to be shuffled up on the drive to fill the gap.
A fast SCSI drive is ideal.
The only problem with Samplitude is crap documentation.
SoundFX ought to be able to do it too, but its virtual memory feature
has problems, so not recommended for this unless you have 256 Megs of
RAM.
