Tracking Cd's

How do i do it!!

 

I've recently moved onto cds for my mixes, and have a cd recorder, the machine supports a tracking system but i cant get it to work!

Is there any programs i can use on my puter?

I heard that a wave editor does it, but that doesnt work!!

Any help would be great!!!

I'm new to this track marking thing too, but have managed to do it using Sound Forge 6.0 and Vagas Video 3.0. Works really well!!! hope thgat is of some help mate

ill be interested to see how other people do it as i actually cut my main mix up into seperate tracks using cool edit then when i burn it i just set the time between tracks to zero seconds....a very long winded process

[Tony P]

Using Video Vegas you can just insert markers where you want them (no need to change time gap to zero). Its really easy and very effective mate.

You should give it a go, as i'm [censored] with computers and i can do it

i use SoundForge for recording & placing the markers into the mix, coz it's a piece of piss to drag the markers around once you place them down roughly......so u can get your tracks changing tightly against the first beat of a phrase or whatever.

 

SoundForge does have a function to slice up these 'regions', but i cant figure it out.

 

So then i save, load up the mix with markers in GoldWave, and use "Tools / Cue Points / Split File".

 

Then into Easy CD Creator, drag and drop all my tracks in, and make sure to use "Disc At Once", otherwise u get a gap.

 

lemon squeezy!

can you tell us whereabouts this is in nero, because i've been trying to find it with no luck.

[Mr_Happy]

drag the file into nero as if u were to burn 1 long file

 

right click the file inside of nero and click [properties...]

 

 

[Mr_Happy]

the 2nd tad will say "Indexes, Limits, Splits" - goto that tab

 

from there on it should be straight 4ward - obviously u'll want to add 'splits' to it rather then 'indexes'

 

hope that helps

d'oh. i have used that dialog so many times before, i use it for cutting the start and end of tracks, etc, when i can't be bothered to open them in sound forge, i can't believe i blatantly missed the "Split" button.

 

was looking in the Audio Editor and everything

 

cheers
