Recording a mix, then splitting the tracks...

Recording a mix, then splitting the tracks...

right....


i want to record a mix, and stick it on CD, which can do. BUT, i want to be able to skip tracks on the CD player...like a normal CD, but i still want it to be mixed.....(like a normal mix CD eg. A Gatecrasher CD)

how do i do it?

ta!!!

erm.. record to ur pc in the usual way.. convert that file into an mp3.



then write a cue file.

ahhh...i thought that might be the answer....

right.....then what do u do?
how do u put the mix and the cue file onto an audio cd?

if i just use cd creator, and stick the mp3 and the .cue onto an audio disk will it work?


and can somebody paste me a cue file that works so i can copy it?

umm.. ive onlee done it with nero m8...


in nero its file> create disc from image (the cue file)

then burn.


cuefiles:... download one frm this site and change the track names/times to fit ur mix.

cheers mate....ill give it a go!

mr doggie is the man to ask for cue files.. he knows all.

i have a prog on my comp that u put all the time's in then it splits it up into seperate tracks then u burn it (take out 2 sec time gap off) mp3 splitter i think its called! (got it off doggie)

ta karl...ill give that a go too.....

ive got to do the mix without messing up first tho!

I think its easier getting a program like Wavelab. You record the mix onto your computer as a *.wav file and then its well easy to go through and stick in track marks. Its far more accurate this way too, you can make sure you get the marker in exactly the right place so its nopt cutting off half a beat or something.

yeah Wavelab is a much better option, you drop a track marker where you want it, then you use the option to make an audio cd, add all the tracks, then select it to be reorded "disc at once" and that way you dont get any gaps

thats what i do anyway

cheers lads, ill try this wav lab thing tonight!

cue files are the way forwards, u can name the tracks so it appearson display, no gaps, get track marks down to nearest milli second, use different formats, eg wav, mp3 and stick em all on one cue sheet... thing is they gotta be perfect everytime! Wanna know more, give me a shout!

can do that in wavelab too!

not sure about the track names though, but can do everythin else

With wavelab you can actually listen to the file at the same time and, once you get the hang of it, you can really get the track-marker spot-on in the right place fairly quickly.

I never really used cue-sheets, but imo their best use is for mix sets or albums downloaded as one big file that need to be seperated.

My last cd that I made was recorded onto the computer from minidisc, then normalized, then the track-marks put on and then the tracknames put on too, all with wavelab.

I reckon I should be getting some money soon for this advertising I'm giving them! Saying that though, whats the chances anyones gonna be getting a legal copy!!
