Sound forge track help, please

[robdan]

Hi, how do i program in track number in a mix i recorded?

[BioTech]

There may be an easier way, but this is the way I do it:

Open up the whole recording in soundforge.
Highlight the first track.
Cut
Edit > Paste To New
Save the newly pasted track in a folder with the filename 01.wav
Close and return to the main recording and repeat the above steps with the next track and name it 02.wav etc etc


Use burning software to burn the tracks in order but make sure that you select "disc at once" and be sure to check that your burning software is not set up to place any silence in between tracks.

Hope that helps.

The other way to do it is to use a Cue Sheet and burn an image. Look it up on google.

Thanks i'll give it a go on a quick mix than try it out no a full one, what the best format to up load mix's to web site?

For compressed audio the most widely used format is MP3, so I'd go with that. Compress at 192k+ though or the quality loss will be more noticeable.
