francesthemutes Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Some of you may have songs or albums that are actually all "one" so to speak. If any of you have tried listening to Cassandra Geminni by The Mars Volta, you'll know that it's all one long song, divided into 8 tracks. The song flows seamlessly, however, on my RH10 it does that little pause into the next part. It's very distracting. Any way to get rid of that?

sebastianbf Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 the songs are in mp3 right? If so, you will have to edit them to cut the silence parts at the beginning and the end of each track with a program like Goldwave, Cool Edit or something like that.

Direct from CD into SonicStage 3.2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebastianbf Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 ohh that's weird. Try using SimpleBurner (you can download it in the download section). If the cd don't have silence gaps between songs, you will get a gapless record using SimpleBurner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrain Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 try & copy it again using simple burner, see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uzzi Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Is the gap related to the way the player switches tracks, or the recording? If it was the way the player switches tracks; I'd just rip it to a high bitrate MP3 first, then combine the tracks with goldwave, like sebastianbf said to do. That would insure that there are no gaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwakrz Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 One other thing, in the SS settings there is an option to use smoothing when reading the CD, this interpolates the data stream by re-reading before and after the required sample to allow it to align them all together (needed if you have an old CD drive that cant read audio data correctly). Enabling this may help. Also if you import into SS, do NOT re-encode the audio as this introduces gaps (If you rip at Hi-SP, stick with Hi-SP as converting to LP2 etc WILL introduce gaps).

Sparky191 Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I thought that only ATRAC is gapless, MP3 isn't on a 2nd gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodgnome Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I thought that only ATRAC is gapless, MP3 isn't on a 2nd gen.←ATRAC is gapless if you transfer to MD at the identical bitrate you rip it at. Change the ATRAC bitrate and gaps are induced.Ripping to mp3 automatically has gaps all the time. Even trimming the end of the mp3s and downloading to MD still produces the gaps on playback.

Though its easy to do by accident in SS if you're not careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
