audacity>cdwave

(1/1)

Taper Chris:
Why does the work get shortened by about 3.5 seconds per hour when transferring from audacity to cd wav?
Example, file is 02:04:53 but when I tracked it out on cd wave and put track list into winamp it totaled 02:04:46. I found out playing back on winamp. Everything is 44.1k 16b from recorder to audacity.  And if I put the audacity track into winamp the length of project is the same. Thanks.

Taper Chris:
I think its the winamp. I went to tracks folder, highlighted every track and went to properties. The total time for the tracks is 02:04:53. But whats interesting is the audacity track in winamp also came out to 02:04:53.

morst:
I bet it has to do with rounding seconds.

If we had three files that were 10.6 seconds long, one might say it's 33 seconds total (11 x 3) but one might only say 32 seconds (10.6 x 3, rounded up)

F.O.Bean:
Chris, have you ever tried FooBar 2000? I would try that and see what the total length is :)

woooord. It seems to be the win amp, since the wav files properties ( I highlighted all 19 tracks ) say the tracks equal the untracked mix in time. So as long as the work flow and flac upload isn't corrupted, Ill be ok if my playback is a lil rounded up or down.

I'll see wsup w foobar though, thanks!!!!
