Re: WAV CDs wont play on any of my players

my CD-R discs wont work on any of my players and even in Windows Explorer there are no files to be found on the discs. What software are you using to burn your CD's?

Re: Combining Files That Play at Different Speeds

Combing them onto the same track the interview sounds normal, the music sounds like a half dozen mice who drank a thousand cups of coffee.

Re: Combining Files That Play at Different Speeds

What do you mean?
Do you mean songs with different tempo (bpm) that you want to play at the same tempo?
