Does the Mac support dropping track marks in long wav/aiff files? Or do you have to cut the audio file into the tracks as separate files? or ? In Windows, that I use, writing audio CDs (and CDs in general) is not part of Windows XP (or earlier). I wonder what the new version has to offer. While many stand-alone programs offer CD burning (Easy CD Creator, Sonic's burner, etc.), I have grown accustomed to working within one interface for ingest/editing/processing/dropping track marks/burning CDs. It becomes a seamless operation. I try, for about 90% of the restoration work, to set it up to process in one pass. That way, I don't have chained sets of files and have to "roll back" if I don't like the final result, I tweak the one thing I don't like and re-burn. Some of the Windows stand-alone programs (like Golden Hawk) allow dropping of track marks anywhere (although Golden Hawk uses a scripting language where one has to enter the times, it's not drag and drop--I don't use it anymore, but it solved some problems where others failed early on). Others require file-per-track (I think that's the only option in ExactAudioCopy.de). Obviously, there are many different workflows, and we all adopt to the one that we know best. I thought Audacity had some interesting features and offered good value for its price. Although the interface is a bit consumerish, I think, at least in the Windows environment, Magix Audio Cleaning Lab is perhaps a better value for money. Of course, part of that is that I'm used to the way it works as it borrows heavily from Samplitude (which I use), so that's my prejudice showing (and I hope I was clear in my first post that I'm used to that model). Thanks for the information. Cheers, Richard At 06:49 AM 8/6/2005, you wrote: >One doesn't. This is not a feature that is offered.
