Audacity can't split a mixed performance into individual voices, instruments or sounds.

awe that's too bad. i was hoping it could. my father has been deceased for 29 years now and i would love to get the talking out of those fiddle tunes. just wondering, do you know of any place that does something like this? just thought i would ask. thank you for contacting back and letting me know. i really appreciate it very much.

I don't, but someone else may post.

You're talking about editing the raw waveform, a very tricky business, maybe impossible in this case though I sympathize with your purpose. Never done it myself, except for clipping out pops especially between recorded sections. Try asking your question at audio pro forums:

You can find others with a google search.

If you want, post a sample of the recording with the talking and I'll have a go at it. I do this stuff fairly often so I have a few tricks up my sleeve. No guarantees, though.
