Title: Recorded my first show today > Link to recording!
Post by: jasonw on September 24, 2006, 09:28:29 PM
Now what is the best(easiest) way to track this sucker out.  I want to put up a sample b/c I am quite proud of this moment & sound of the show. 

I would take time to search in the forum's but I am studying for an econ. test...so cut me some slack.


Edited: to add link to song....(better site to host?)

CD Wave only splits WAV files. It can save as FLAC, but I would suggest saving as WAV files then converting them with FLAC Frontend (do a google search an you will find that program).

So i encoded to flac....and I press the "fingerprint button"  then select a txt then i save it.  But when I open said file....nothing shows.  Whats up?

Open flac files (converted flac files not wav)
highlight all flac files
Hit fingerprint
save as year-date-dayffp.txt

When saving diretly to flac with cdwave, are the seek tables retained or are they lost as with dbPowerAMP?

I took apart a pair of athletic socks and cut out circles and ruberbanded them onto the mics then I took a pair of hiking socks and put over the whole mic.  Make sense?  It worked out a little better than ok but not great.

You are watching too many MacGyver and A-Team re-runs my friend. Good call on using what you got to make it work! + T
