Any Way To Split Songs In Sonicstage3?

[jamie60509]

Hi

I'm trying to put a CD onto my MD but the last track on the CD is about 14mins long with a hidden track at the end.

Is there any way that I can seperate the last track from the hidden track and delete the 6 mins of silence in between?

Thanks for your help!

This isn't a job for SonicStage.

You need an audio editing program like Audacity.

http://audacity.sourceforge.net

Copy the track from the CD onto your computer. Go to My Computer and Explore the CD drive. If all you see are 1KB .cda files then you need to get the .wav file. You can do that with CDex

http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/

which will list all the .wav files on the CD.

Copy the last song to your desktop, or wherever, and then open it (Shift held down, right-click, Open With... will be in the menu) with Audacity. You'll see the whole song as a waveform, and you can highlight/select and delete the silence, then highlight the hidden track and make a new file out of it. When you're done, instead of Save, use "Export as .wav." It's just like word-processing, only with a waveform.

I thought I'd have to do it that way but didn't know if there was an easier way of doing it in Sonicstage...Then again, Sonicstage and easy aren't really two words that go together are they lol

Thanks!
