Topic: Getting started Wavelab 6

Hi


Thanks to Bean for suggesting this program- can anyone help me, I've been using it for a few days now but can't seem to do some basic functions

1/ I've split the file down into individual tracks, but cannot seem to export them as seperate wav files

thanks

To export individual files, I believe you have to use the "render" function and follow the menus. This way you are assured that your final file will be in the proper sample rate and bit-depth and file type. You also give yourself the option of 'batch' processing which allows you to apply multiple functions at once.

However, as most will chime in, tracking is usually done with CDWAV (freeware) after the original file is mastered.

So take your file, edit, EQ it, apply fades, dither/resample, etc., and then render it to the final format in one big file. Take that file and open it in CDWAV to make your individual tracks. You can then save them in whatever format you prefer, i.e., FLAC, mp3 or WAV. It doesn't mind big file sizes either and it tracks along sector boundaries. It is the tracking program of choice.

Wavelab has a moderate learning curve so be patient. It's pretty scary to the first time user. Hope this helps.

There is no need for CD wave. If your using wavelab 6, it does everything cdwave does and you can stick in one program

ok

I'm assuming you've marked all your tracks with the red cd track splice marker (not the yellow general markers or any of the others).

What you want to do is go to all your markers and right click on them

Make sure all of these have quantize to CD frame and lock position checked.

Now, in the top menu of wavelab you'll see

file edit view process analysis sampling and TOOLS

Click tools

Go to autosplit on the tools drop down

Click next three times (leave default settings unless you want to change them)

on the window showing after the third click, set the destination folder for where you want your waves to end up after they are tracked.

Click next two more time.

This is where you can choose how the tracks are named after they are split. I usually go with the last option and name them right from there

with the bottom option clicked, type the name you want, one per line in the box

example :

blablah2011-06-15.d1t01
blablah2011-06-15.d1t02

Click process and your done

If you get sector boundry errors, you forgot to either click the lock button or the quantize button when you right click the red marker.

Hope that helps.
