How to I adjust start/stop times for individual tracks? When I access the "get info" pane, there is a check box for start and stop times, but when selected or not, there is no further action to take.

   beaTunes does not offer a manual way to adjust start/stop times.

   However, for iTunes/Music.app-based libraries, there is the "detect silence" task that adjusts them automatically.

   For folder-based libraries, there is no equivalent.

   Sorry.

   Thanks a bunch for your assistance H.
   I guess I'll just make the request to add this feature for some future update. It's somewhat anoying not to be able to trim out instrumentation warm-up or live audience noice on tracks.

   Are you using an iTunes/Music.app-based collection? Or a folder-based one?

   Hi Hendricks,
   It is linked to my Apple Music library on a MacBook Pro.

   OK - then you can at least set those values in the Music.app!

   Yes, true enough. So create playlists in BeaTunes, and then use the Music app for playback. Good advice.
   Thanks

   Well, not quite my favorite scenario, but yes, very workable.
