I have a rather large WAV file from a concert recording that I would like to crop into smaller pieces. Can anyone recommend a free program to do the cropping under OS X?

Thanks,

QuickTime Pro's the obvious choice, but it'll cost you...

But Ambrosia's Wiretap, in conjunction with QuickTime and well-timed mouse clicks, will probably do the job.

Thanks for all of the suggestions! I downloaded audacity and it seems to do the trick.
