How far did you get? You've got that the basic structure (the syntax) is: (extract-abs <start> <end> <sound>) So we are "extracting" (trimming to) the section between <start> and <end> and the sound that we are trimming is "*track*" So in the original line: (extract-abs (get-peak...

Try this:
1) Start playing some music in your preferred media player - ensure that it plays.
