Subject:recording LP's Posted by: starblzer Date:3/14/2001 7:50:06 AM I am using sonic foundry XP to record albums and then burning them to cd. I record each album side and one large file. I would like ot know how to then cut the album side up into the individual songs quickly and easily. Right now I cut and paste the song into a new file and save it that way, but is there a way to mark the songs and save them all in one step. thanks steve
Subject:RE: recording LP's Reply by: garrigus Date:3/18/2001 7:36:32 AM Hi Steve, I don't have XP up and running on my machine at the moment, so I'm not sure, but does it provide the Auto Region function? It should be under the Tools menu like in SF5. If so, then you can use that function to have SF automatically mark the songs in your file. And then use the Extract Regions function to separate each song into its own file. I'm not sure if XP provides these functions though. If not, then you're probably stuck doing the procedure the hard way. Best, Scott -- Scott R.

Sonic Foundry had the best solution to the exact problem you're having. It was called "CD Architect". It was implemented directly into Sound Forge v4.5 as an extra add-on. Alls you would have to do is open your large wave file and drop Track ID's wherever you wanted with a click of a mouse and slide them around just as easy. They stopped developing CD architect and now have even decided to not let SF v5.0 recognize it as a menu item, if you already own it and have it installed. What I've been recommending to everyone is a software program called "Nero" by ahead software. It will allow you to do this exact thing you're looking for and then burn directly to CD. Visit www.nero.com it's a relatively inexpensive program and is the best CDR software I've ever used. Brian Franz

Hi Steve,

I don't have XP up and running on my machine at the moment,
so I'm not sure, but does it provide the Auto Region
function? It should be under the Tools menu like in SF5. If
so, then you can use that function to have SF automatically
mark the songs in your file. And then use the Extract
Regions function to separate each song into its own file.
I'm not sure if XP provides these functions though. If not,
then you're probably stuck doing the procedure the hard way.

Best,
Scott
