NEW TRACKS

Hey Guys, I'm fairly new to Sound Forge 6.0 and I cant seem to find what im looking for anywhere and I was hoping someone would help me out here. I create very long wave files from another mixing program that I would like to split up into different tracks at certain places that I choose. Is this possible? Using the Track At Once feature should allow me to get a seemless mixed CD, but how do I specify where the new tracks are to start? Any help is greatly appreciated :)

Since you posted this in the CD Architect forum, I'll assume you have CD Architect.

I'm also assuming that what you're trying to do is make a CD that has one long performance (such as a concert), but allows the listener to jump to specific songs within that performance.

In CDA, simply put the cursor at the point you want a new track to begin, and use the "Insert" menu to insert a track. That has no effect on the sound -- i.e., it does NOT insert a 2-second break -- but it makes that point a selectable "track" on the finished CD when you play it.

Setting your cursor and pressing "T" is easier still.

PS You cannot do what you want in Sound Forge. TAO can only write one track at a time, with one track number, and a 2 sec gap between tracks. Which is why, I guess, you are posting this here ...

Like Geoff said, Track At Once will NOT work. If you like Sound Forge, you may find that it is easiest to make regions in Sound Forge, open CD Architect, right click on your wave file and choose add to timeline as tracks. Or something close to that command.
