TOCs and track info for CD burning?

[Cornish Jack]

Any CD burning gurus out there who can help, please?

I have recorded a couple of WAV. files from a pair of cassette tape sources and transferred them to the 'puter and used them as source for burning an audio CD. It all worked very well but the result is 'seen' as a one track recording with no individual track identification and no proper TOC or times etc. I can, obviously obtain the info, but how do I edit it onto, either the original WAV. file, or, during the 'burn'? The sound card is the Creative 1024 Live! and the recording programme is part of the Creative suite - Wave Recorder?? Any advice gratefully received. (The final disc is intended as a seasonal 'pressie' so there is a certain amount of time pressure!!! :)

Try downloading a CD burning program from

or

<A HREF="http://www.elby.de/" TARGET="_blank">http://www.elby.de/</A> for Clone Cd

or

<A HREF="http://www.ahead.de/" TARGET="_blank">http://www.ahead.de/</A> for Nero

All work well for what you want to do.

Many thanks Mindstorm - Have downloaded the Goldenhawk and will give it a whirl. Have also found one at home which will probably work. I may well have to start from scratch again and record each track as a separate file 'cos trying to split them from the main multi-track recording keeps running me 'out of memory' !! The Season's best to you.

CJ,

AFAIK there's no simple way of inserting 'flags' into a single long wave file of multiple tracks to break the tracks up. Best way is to split the wave file. If this is causing the memory errors, perhaps increse your windows swap file size. Other than that, all you can do is re-record.

Many thanks Aq - I've come to the conclusion that the re-record route has to be the way. Should have known, really. ALL the books make the point that WAV files at any decent sampling rate are going to be HUGE - approx 10Mbs/min and my smallest file is 289 Mbs. As they say, 'when all else fails, 'READ THE INSTRUCTIONS' Merry Xmas!!

LPRipper from CFB Software will solve ya problem. Breaks that big .wav file up into separate .wav files automatically. Not expensive. Download & register. Good guys. Fine customer followup service.
