You can save this version of the file, too (I add "CDTracks" to the original file name). Open the Edit menu, select Track List, then Create CD Tracks from Regions. I just tack "regions" on to the original file name when I save this intermediate step. I'd suggest saving it with another name from your original project so you'll still have the "raw" recording intact. When you open the Save window, before saviing, make sure the "Save Metadat With File" box is checked. Open the Edit menu, select Regions List, and click Markers to Regions. The next step is to convert each section between a pair of markers into a separate region. Remember that it takes about a quarter of a second on the average for a CD to start playing, so leave a little space between the marker and the first note of the song if you want the listener (or a DJ) to be able to cue up the song and have it play without cutting off the first note or two Put a marker at the end of the last song as well. Place a marker (the M key) at the beginning of the first track and one at each place where you want each successive track to start. Choose the starting point of each track yourself and don't let the program decide where the divisions should be. You may need to do a little translation.įirst, don't be lazy. Here's how it's done in Sound Forge, and I believe the same procedure, perhaps with slightly different terminology in the menus, is common to Audio Studio.
Yes, you have precise control over the amount of space that exists between CD tracks and audio Here's one: Switch to event edit mode, place your cursor at a point where you want one CD track to end and the next to begin, press S on your keyboard to split the event into two, click the first of the two events to select it, and finally press N on your keyboard to create a CD track that matches the length of the selected event.Ĭan we burn a mixed CD with different tracks without listening to the gaps in between mixes for us DJs? Gaps are the main concern in between tracks. There are a few different ways you could do this.
If you have recorded a live concert as one files how do you create separate tracks for each song on your CD? Unless I do (unknown knowns and all that). But the first FAQ says something about Event Edit mode. A google search gave me a help page for Sony Sound Forge. I can't find anything in the help file ( unless I don't know the proper vocabulary ). I tried Track-At-Once with "separate regions for each track" or something like that thinking it might burn separate tracks - but no go.
I need to split it into separate tracks and burn 3 copies.
