Right, I know I use Nero, and you can elect to have no silences except atthe
start of the first track. This I have used to make track breaks in
continuous live recordings and as long as you make the markers at CD frame
boundaries, all is sweetness and light.

The thing is that my last comment above is why you will always get a tiny
bit of the previous track when you do pause. The CD system is based on
frames of data, You cannot actually play a bit of a frame. So, if you want
to do things like this, you would really need a recording medium which does
not work this way. Over to someone else who's knowledge of this is greater
than mine. However Minidisc does, in some incarnations at leaset seem to
offer this and although its a compressed format, its not bad quality wise.

Hi all

I'm new to this group and was hoping to get some sound advice from here.

I've been with an amatuer theatre for the last few years providing bespoke
sfx for their productions. I've been using minidisc format for most of the
time untill recentley I invested in a dual cd player
http://www.numark.com/cdn35

The most annoying thing I found was;

1...How to remove the silence bit and still have the unit autopause.
(it's annoying when you have some cues pretty close together, but it
adds 2 to 5 secs before next track can play)
2...How to stop some tracks playing a millisecond of the neaxt track just
before autopausing.

I use mixcraft to edit and produce my sfx, which adds approx 3 sec silence
to the end of the saved file, and CD burning software adds approx 2 sec
silence to the beggining of a track.

Is there a workaround, or can these points be resolved with CD media?


ps
I know dual mp3 players and HDD tech would do the job, but I need to get
the most using CD media with this unit.
