Topic: cd tracking program for MAC

[Uncle Jimmy]

Audacity can do the downsample.

There is a samll drop-down with the sample rate in the corner of the project window. Change to what you want, and it will perform any necessary conversion upon export to WAV or whatever else.

>>) I like to create 1 cue sheet for the 48 file and then use that same sheet for the 44.1 after I resample.  That way when I start creatinfg DVD-A discs hopefully I wont have to retrack everything.<<

I track 24/96 files in spark once.  then I use the batch converter to resample and dither.  result: 2 sets of files the exact same length (one 24/96, one 16/44.1) and i only split tracks once

you can probabaly do the same in plenty of other apps...

That makes sense, I'll try doing it that way.

Doah,  you have got to be kidding me?
No I didn't know that.  I was pretty sure the JB3 was compatable with mac but I haven't checked requirements yet.

Good catch Cooker +T  

I could have sworn the JB3 was Mac compatable.  I just checked the system requirements. You are correct Windows 98/2000/Me/XP only.

John Kelly,

Didn't you used to run one of these?  I guess you used something other than your mac for transferes?

It still might work. I have a dvd writer thatisnt supported by apple but it still works. It might just see it as a regular fat32 hard drive. Its worth a shot.

They aren't Mac compatible.  There is a beta driver out there, but it only works over USB and I've never had it transfer a full show (it would always get an error and start over).

And yeah, I have a PC just for transfers.

is it a fat32 drive?

[John Kelly]

No it's not, and it does not show up on a Mac as a volume.  It appears in the System Profile, but that's it...

[scb]

it's moronic for it to have its own proprietary file system...

[John Kelly]

I agree completely.

[JNT]

Just tried it tonight, doesn't work with mac.  I guess the windows laptop is comming with us.

Joe

[scb]

if it was a fat 32 or ntfs drive or any "normal" format, the mac would have no problem.  but they made it a format that nothing can read without their special software

creative labs? proprietary? color me surprised.

my dad was in town this weekend, and is a total techie, when i showed him my JB3 he was astonished... "you mean to tell me you're replacing your $700 DAT machine with something made by CREATIVE? I thought you said you'd never buy another Creative product again!"
