I have recorded a tape using audacity 2.0.5 and it has 9 song on it. How can I lable and number each song. So I can burn on to a cd. It an old tape .
I have seen how to do this some where but can’t seem to find it . Using win 10 Thanks!!!
There’s more than one way to do it. [u]This page[/u] links to some instructions for marking the songs and exporting to multiple songs at once. It also has links/information about CD burning (which Audacity can’t do).
I use a [u]Cue Sheet[/u]. (I use [u]ImgBurn[/u], which supports cue sheets, as my burning application.)
With a cue sheet you can optionally use one big WAV file and the cue sheet tells the burning application where to put the track markers. I generally start with a known-good cue sheet and then edit it with Windows Notepad. A cue sheet also works great when you have a live recording with no silence between tracks.
Or, you can also simply select-highlight the songs one at a time, and then choose File → Export → Export Selected Audio to create one file at a time. That’s how I do it when I’m making MP3s… I don’t bother with Export Multiple, I just export one song at a time. You might need to prefix the file names with a number so they get burned to the disc in the correct order… “01 Thriller.WAV”, “02 Billie Jean.WAV”, etc.
Thanks Dvddoug.
I reading somewhere last year and I was able to lable each song, but cannot remember where.
All I had to do was put my curser at the begging of each song and number iand name the song. Using ctrl *. It was real easy.
I’ll give what you said a try. Thanks!
