Thanks Elizabeth -- I took a look at CHILDES -- seems like a great way to synch digital audio with transcripts ( best of all it's free??). It's able to read all kinds of sound files -- apparently because it uses quicktime 4. So the audio files I created using "soundjam" and "Peak" work fine -- except the one using variable rate encoding. I don't have a need for the fine-grained linguistic analysis that it affords, but it makes the manual creation of transcripts much easier. Very nice!
