Chris,

I see that you've understood my problem. I just don't want to cut off 55 
minutes of recording, assuming that it's all blank.

However no Sound Forge in my collection. Any way to use Sonar Producer 7 or 
a plug-in and get the same results?

Dave

If you have sound Forge, just highlight until the end of the
recording and run the Statistics function. It will show you average
and peak loudness for the selected audio, plus the location of
maximum peaks. That will give you an idea at least.
