Changing delay time between tracks

I don't think it is possible however as a workaround (Some other members will be able to give the proper technical steps) you could add or remove 2 second silence tracks then merge song track with a silence track to mimic delay time between tracks as you desire. I even think in SS you can merge tracks.

Extra time can indeed be added to the end of a track, for one or more tracks:

1) Create a silent track of sufficient total length

2) Divide this track into 2-second (or as required) sub-tracks using the track mark or A-B divide facility repeatedly

3) Move each successive stub of silence between consecutive music tracks

4) Merge each 2-second stub with the previous music track

Note, however:

1) This may not work with tracks some recorded via NetMD

2) Each stub must be recorded in the same format as the intended target track (Mono, SP, LP2 etc)

3) There may be some arbitrary limit to how many edits can be done, apart from the usual track count limits

4) This will give your sled motor a really good work out, as it will seek from end of track to end of disc for each track

If the tracks can be copied off, edited, and re-recoded without too much loss of audio quality that would probably be a better long-term solution.

One place that I know it is easy to add (or adjust) inter-track silences, is when you make a CD in Nero. I have not checked, but I have a feeling that these silences will be preserved when you do a CD->MD copy.

Another place one can add silence (this is more of a pain but for the odd place you care about may be just fine) is using SoundForge or CoolEdit or Audition.

Not sure if either of these tricks is any help.
