I was just reading on the laptop taper's yahoo group It seems the new beta for cdwave will handle 24/48. They ar looking into making it work with higher sampling rates. I don't know any of the details but it sure looks promising
-
hell yeah, i have been waiting for this one...i use sound forge to create regions and extract them for conversion to flac @ 24/48, but i really really like the interface and ease of use of cd wave, please post if you find out more about this and where it can be downloaded!

I'll post when I find out. I heard about it from Dali Reed and Jamie Lutch over on the yahoo Laptop taper's mailing list. I'm interested as well, would be killer if you could burn the 24/48 audio on DVD-A or something

Ok just got this link from the Laptop Taper's group on yahoo. It's a link to the new beta 1.9 for cdwave. It is said that it will handle 24/96 but anything above 48kHz is not a preset yet. You just have to type in what rate you want. I just grabbed it but have yet to put it on the laptop. I don't think I'll use it for recording but will to track the 24 bit files. I think one can save the cue sheet from a 16 bit file and use it for a 24 bit file. But I have not tried it yet. I will this week sometime I'm sure.
Anyway here is the link.

i am giving this a run right now...just tracked out the 16/44.1 version of my 7-13 gorge, saved the cue sheet and am in the midst of opening the 24/48 file and tracking according to the cue sheet. if this works i will be pretty happy, but i wish i could play the files back also at 24bit on this...
-
You can ... or does it only offer 16-bit playback even with a 24-bit capable card? I haven't checked, but I click play in a 24-bit file and I hear sound!
Also, if he can solve the "2 GB problem" he'll have the only software a taper needs unless you do some editing.
-
hmm, i didn't hear sound. maybe i only tried it through my usbpre, but i am pretty sure i tested it on my pc with an echo mia card first. guess i'll have to test again

Did you guys get this to work for tracking 24 bit files?
I tried a 24/48 file yesterday and it loaded ok, I could see the waveform, but when I tried playback I get a file type error (or something like that).

yeah i had that happen to me too, ben. what i have done to get around this was convert to 16/44.1 as a separate file, track that in cd wave and save the cue sheet, then load the 24bit file and load the cue sheet from the 16bit file without opening the associated file (cd wave will ask if you want to do this)
-
Strange. I assume you can get sound in your other applications. Double check or play with the sound output for CD Wave and in your windows preferences (control panel > sounds and multimedia) and see what happens.
I'm doing fine with my Sek'd Prodif Plus with the coax output in Windows 2000.
Good luck,

Simp-Dawg-
Just wondering, any problems with compatibility when using the same cue sheet for 16/44.1 and 24/48 files?
I'm asking this because I saw above that you were using the extract regions feature in sound forge. I do the same and noticed that the boundaries of the regions get screwed up when loading a region file that was created at a different sample rate.
For example, I track out a 24/48 file, then save the region list. If I were to resample, dither, and save this file, then re-open the 16/44.1 version and open the region list, the track boundaries will be shifted off from where they were originally. I did find that if I track the 24 bit file, and then resample and dither keeping the original file window open with the regions unchanged the boundaries will be in the correct places and I can then extract those regions correctly.
Kind of an annoying bug, just wondering if you might have noticed the same thing, in sound forge and/or CDWAV.
Take care,
Ben
