So I am tracking out my first shows on wavelab.
after I put all the track markers down and have wavelab split them in to different clips I click on each individual clip and tell the program save as new audio file.(this works perfect)
but after I have tracked the show I try and burn the .wav in Nero and it says the file is not compatible.
I check the .wav properties and it is still at 44.1khs but the bit rate is like 2200 kbs instead of the 1411 kbs that my JB3 records.
also the size of the .wav doubles before tracking the file size for the whole .wav was 499MB then after I saved the trackes to a different folder the folder size was 995 MB.
so it seem to double the size of the track when it out puts it.
how can I fix this?
Sounds like you are working out of the Montage by your mentioning of clips and the fact that it doupble in size. The montage works with a native 32 bit flaot temp file by default (you can change it, but I wouldn't suggest that). Make sure you are using the cd track markers as Chris K mentions. (also make sure you tic the auto-quantize to cd frame option in the marker dialogue).
Then, when the file is all tracked out, you can select "create audio cd" to burn to disc. Why not just burn from there? The dialogue that pops up will guide you through the rest of the burning process. I don't see the advantage of burning from Nero. fyi, Nero has been known to conflict with WaveLab on some occasions. But, I think your problem comes from not rendering from the montage.
If you are not going to flac/shn the files, just track the whole show out and burn away.
If you want to compress the individual files, I track the show out so that it fits properly on your chosen media. Then click cd burning dialogue, and select options (or something like that. I am at work now) Under the options setting you can select "save as individual files" all in one batch. That way, you can keep the original file in tact, and compress the individuals which allows you to delete the input files in your compression program if you choose. You keep the original, have flacs of the individulas and are good to go.
Hope that made sense.
