Title: CDWav software - dumb question
Post by: obaaron on October 28, 2013, 09:25:26 PM
now that I am running multiple rigs tracking, etc. is a little more burdensome.  If I create a cue sheet for the first source, do I then use that cue sheet for the next sources as well? The files are all the same length size as they are all going into the DR680.

I know...dumb question lol!


Thanks!

You should mix the sources together first (maybe do a tiny time shift if you are doing SBD + AUD), then cut it into tracks.

Sure, that's the reason for creating a cue sheet, so you can re-load it for other files and cut at the exact same points.

If you are planning on creating multiple sources that will work fine.

Pretty sure the cue sheet will just create the chops at the same points if the file length is the same.

I feel like an idiot.

I've been using the DR-2d for a while now and almost always run 4ch. I've been opening 4 separate CD Wave windows for the separate sources, the 16 bit matrix and the 24 bit matrix, "stacking" them on top of each other, and doing the tracking separately.

This is kind of like the time I had been manually doing track splits in Audacity because I didn't realize CD Wave did 24 bit...

D'oh!

I use a 24-bit workspace when creating my main FLAC set, dither outside of CDWAVE, and then use the a copy of the cue sheet (with a filename change) to create the 16-bit FLAC set [if I do one] and the WAV files for MP3.   Works like a charm.
