Pulled up Reaper last night. Needed to do a simple sweetening job on some 2-mixes of a kids choir. Man, I couldn't believe how intuitive the thing was. I've always run into little "gotta look up how to do something simple" things with Cake/Sonar but none of that with R. Now I just need to figure out how to render multiple songs to CD. Tried to use Vista with Media Player and it says it doesn't have rights (DRM) to burn the tracks. Why in the world has computer-based stuff gotta be so difficult?

Some folks find it difficult, but I totally dig Reaper. > I just need to figure out how to render multiple songs to CD.

Are the multiple songs in wave format? You can use Reaper as a CD mastering app, by just dragging and dropping waves onto it's timeline, and then render to BIN/CUE with the option ticked to burn after render. You can even do CD Text using markers, so that the titles and artist info shows up on newer CD players that do CD Text. -- Remove YourHeadFromYourAss to Reply by email ________ __ / ____/ /__ ____ ____ / /_ ____ / / __/ / _ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \ / /_/ / / __/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ / \____/_/\___/_/ /_/_/ /_/_.___/\____/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glennbo http://www.soundclick.com/glennbo Non-Linear Sound http://www.soundclick.com/jambits Hear My Music http://www.soundclick.com/ThePseudonyms

I finally managed to burn by using another tool, Cyberlink Power2Go. Vista MP11 just didn't like the files for some reason. Weird thing now though, I get this little popping sound on the tracks, primarily where there's audio. Fairly certain it's not overdriven/clipping. I've tried slowing the burner down from 24x to the slowest, 10x and it does the same thing. The weird part is, you take the CD that has pops when played directly from CD, rip the tracks from it and the ripped tracks play clean. It really seems that by now we'd have audio stuff on computer that'd be easy to deal with. Does that CD problem ring a bell?

Does that CD problem ring a bell? I've not had that problem, but it sounds like maybe some kind of conversion might have taken place in the process or something. -- Remove YourHeadFromYourAss to Reply by email ________ __ / ____/ /__ ____ ____ / /_ ____ / / __/ / _ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \ / /_/ / / __/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ / \____/_/\___/_/ /_/_/ /_/_.___/\____/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glennbo http://www.soundclick.com/glennbo Non-Linear Sound http://www.soundclick.com/jambits Hear My Music http://www.soundclick.com/ThePseudonyms

The discs played fine everywhere else. Man, I'll be glad when computer recording symantecs get easy.
