Waveburner, Osx, What Instead? Options

[sberkley]

You can create an audio CD from Peak from either an audio document window or from the playlist. In either case, you'll want to mark up your songs as regions in Peak (make a selection, then choose "New Region" or press the new region toolbar button).

If you your songs organized into regions all in one audio document, just press the burn button in the toolbar or "Burn Audio CD" from the File menu.

If you dragged your regions into a playlist, select the events in the playlist you wish to burn to an audio CD and press the burn button in the playlist window.

Hope that helps-

thanks,
i tried that and i'm probably doing something wrong.
I'll try to explain what i did and what happened:
The first region:
Start 00:00:02 End 06:29:43

Second Region:
start 06:29:44 End 13:15:57

3rd Region:
Start 13:15:58 End 19:36:54

But when i looked to see the yello marks, i find them all at the end of the trak and when i open the content window i saw the following:
Region 1 00:00:02.000
Region 2 01:12:46.159
Region 3 01:12:46.159

which look totaly different than the numbers i inserted....

Why does in happen?
and by the way, it i want to change the start and end of a region, how do i do it?

thanks a lot

You can just drag the little yellow flag at the bottom of the region start line or region end line in the waveform display to move the region start or end, respectively.

Double click on a the little yellow region flag to edit it and you can enter the start time and/or end time. As long as the units are set to min:sec:ms you can just type in "1:27" for example, for 1 minute and 27 seconds.

Or, you can make a selection where you want the region to start and end and then issue the New Region command. This will automatically make a region out of your selection.

Note some tips are cmd-clicking and cmd-shift-clicking in the waveform to the left or right of a nearby region to get selections adjacent to nearby regions. You may want to get used to navigating this way as it makes marking up regions go much more quickly.

Hope that helps-

thanks, but i still get the same results as above.
I did it again, only 1 region.
even thoug i typed start 00:00:00 end 06:29:43
when i look at window i see the first yellow line at the start, and the 2nd which should be on the 06:29:43 point i at the end, and the numbers next to it are: 01:12:46:159

i don't understand

thanks

If you are typing "06:29:43" that is 6 hours, 29 minutes, and 43 seconds, which pushes the region end point to the end of the file. I think you just want to type "6:29", which is 6 minutes, 29 seconds.

Hope that helps-

thanks, but on the Region window, the Units says Min:Sec:ms, so i think it's not hours but minuts.
I also think it's more logical to be minuts since usualy audio is burnt into audio CD which are not hours long...
anyhow, i tried them both,
nothing works

[sberkley]

I tried it and it works fine here, and we have no users reporting the problem, so you must be typing it in incorrectly. I'm the author of Peak, by the way.

Thanks!

even easier in peak.

create a marker at the very begining of the track. then set markers were you want the track to change on the cd. select new playlist from the menu.
now you command click between the markers and it automatically selects the data between the markers and changes them to a region. now hit command-k and your region will be in your playlist.
set the pause between track to what you want. command-a in the playlist to select all tracks click the burn button.

Thank you So Much
finally, after a week struggling i made it
very happy

one question,
I got the orinal file as mp3, i converted it inot aiff, which was the file i've been working on.
I saved the playlist.
If I trash the aiff file, and than will convert the mp3 again into aiff, oepen it in Peak, will the playlist be fitted for this file? will it supply the corret info?

thanks again
you really helpe me

was that thank you for me?

i hope it was. okay.

i think that if you delete the file that has the regions/markers in it your playlist will not work. becuase you have deleted the file with the meta data in it.
