After lamenting the discontinued CDA I am now trying to be practical, and started auditioning Steinberg’s “get it on CD”.
Now, this software has two obvious pros: support of mp3 (w/o the need to convert to .wav first) and CD Text.
Similar to CDA, “get it on CD” will allow you to split a single wav file to multiple CD tracks (though not as elegantly as tapping “T” on the fly) by placing the marker on a desired spot, hence useful for mastering live or classical pieces.
One can also mix tracks together using various cross-fade modes, including a very powerful “logarithmic” fade, so it is useful for mixed compilation.
On the downside however, while in CDA one had the ability to place a track mark anywhere across the “mixed zone” of two tracks combined, it is not the case in “get it on CD”. You can cross-fade two songs, yet the track-mark will remain at the beginning of the second track. It is not useful if there are long silences or unwanted sounds at the beginning.
I am still trying to work around this problem and would appreciate the forum’s suggestions.
Thanks.
