I have seven hours of various songs wanting to save as a .wav file. Since the file is too large (bigger than 2 gig) I need to either cut it in half, or thirds to bring the file(S) under 2 gig. To copy by dragging the mouse from right to left it will take me forever to copy hours, so is there a way to speed up the copy and paste other than making “labeled” tracks. Thanks!
Desperation method would be drag the file into one third (or smaller) and File > Export > Export selected audio. Repeat for each third (or smaller).

The size limit for WAV files is 4 GB, though some files systems may have a lower limit.
It shouldn’t take more than a few seconds.
How I would do it:
- Press “Ctrl + F” to “zoom to fit” the entire recording into the tracks window.
- Click on the waveform somewhere near the middle, and drag to the start of the track.
- Export Selected Audio
- Hold the Shift key down and click near the start of the track, and drag to the end of the track (so that the other half is selected).
- Export Selected Audio
Thanks for your help.
