Edit a song to half length

[Jefffrompawpaw]

I want to use Beetlejuice Dub in my show that starts up this weekend but it's too long and repetitive( it's 4:22).  I have a shared sequence already done that I am using,  Is there a way to edit the song to end at around 2:30.  And when I mean a way I mean an easy

way(i'm new)

+ 1 for Audacity

Well this is disappointing.  I was hoping it would be easier than redoing the whole thing. I have used Audacity beforeand agree it's a pretty good audio  editor. 

I wanted to edit the song and sequence thats already done in the sequence editor.

When you edit the song, make sure and write down all time spans of what you edit out. Then, go into your sequence, select everything inside the time span, remove it move everything back to the edit mark, and then, open the edited version of your song.

 

If your sequence was done in Superstar, it's even easier than that.

You can just chop the end off the entire sequence using change total time, think its in the edit menu, but its a bit ugly.
