Subject:CD Mastering Posted by: TonyD Date:9/25/2000 2:36:00 PM Hi everyone... I am hoping someone can help me out with this. I have a single track, 70minutes long... What I want to do is cut it up into separate tracks to record onto the CD. How do I do this without having to actually cut each section from the large file then paste into a new file. This would take a long time and create alot of files. Is there an easy way to do this in SF? Thanks Tony
Subject:Re: CD Mastering Reply by: earthrisers Date:10/3/2000 11:56:00 AM Assuming that the reason you want to cut up the file is to make the tracks individually selectable on your CD: In CD Architect (plug-in for Sound Forge), you can simply bring in the whole 70-minute file and then designate "track beginnings" at whatever points you want. A "track" on the CD does not have to correspond to an individual WAV file in your file-set. BUT CAUTION: This is fine if you already own CD Architect, and if you have a CD Burner that is supported by that product. But if you don't already own CD Architect, DON'T BUY IT JUST FOR THIS PROJECT. Sonic Foundry has discontinued the product, and they won't support the latest CD-burners on the market. Good luck! -Ernie Tamminga Tony Singh wrote: >>Hi everyone... >>I am hoping someone can help me out with this. >> >>I have a single track, 70minutes long... >>What I want to do is cut it up into separate tracks to >>record onto the CD. >> >>How do I do this without having to actually cut each >>section from the large file then paste into a new file. >> >>This would take a long time and create alot of files. >>Is there an easy way to do this in SF? >> >>Thanks >> >>Tony
