Adobe Audition - help needed

[discohunter]

This is the 2nd time this has happened to me and am wondering why?.....

I recorded off my Giorgio, "Knights In White Satin" album onto the computer. When splitting Side 1 into separate tracks, In The Middle of the Night and Knights reprise play fine, however, the first track comes up on WMP as if the whole 14.50 side is there (in other words, it will play the 4.49 of this track with the blue position indicator only going as far as where it would be if it contained the whole side)

This happened when I was recording of the self titled "Fire" (SUnshine Sound) album as well, all were fine except 2 of the tracks on side one, you can't move the cursor in WMP, it just starts again. (some tiems it might work)

Hope this all makes sense.

An ideas?? (apart from re-recording the affected tracks)

Obviously the whole file has been saved as the first track. How are you splitting the tracks? Are you inserting markers, merging them, and then using the "Save Selection" function?

I record the side as an uncompressed 32 bit wave file, and then do all my adjustments I need to make (noise reduction, normalize etc), then save the file, and then copy each track from the master file into a new file 16 bit file for each song.

If I should be doing it differently could you possibly give me a quick tutorial telling me what steps I should be doing.

BTW, forgot to mention in my original post what version of Audition I'm using it's Adobe Audition 3

Any help appreciated. It doesn't always do what I mentioned in the original post...the "Taka Boom" album I did all separated no problems.

cheers, Jamie

The way I do it is to insert markers at the start and end of each track, then hit ALT + 8 to bring up the cue list, select them all, and then click the button below to merge them. This makes each song a region. From there, I just select the region in the cue list so it gets highlighted, and then click "Save selection".


This next part doesn't matter if you're not making audio CDs:
I also have "display" set to "CD 75 frames per second" and when I'm finishing up, I select "snap to frames". This is because audio CDs need tracks to begin and end on frame boundaries or you will get a click between continuous tracks.
