Audacity has a batch tool called Chains. http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/chains_for_batch_processing_and_effects_automation.html Audacity also has Analyze > Silence Finder.

I could see the volume move up and down, etc. As part of that etc, did you see the blue waves accumulating as well? http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/AudacityRecording-650w.jpg Which number Audacity do you have? Have you been recording for weeks and it's the first time it's done this? Is this ...
