Sequencing an album in Arrangement View

Post by tigali » Sun Feb 14, 2010 2:46 pm

Hey peeps,
Just a quickie. I am sequencing an album in arrangement view, dragging tracks in and placing them in order and adding little bits of automation here and there. Anyways, I want to render the whole thing as one file but I would like to be able to put track markers so I can skip around from track to track once I burn it to CD. Any ideas how this could be done?

Place locators in between one track and the other. I would do so.

Will locators create track breaks in the rendered file? I will check this out.

you should be able to do this when you burn it to CD with a program. Just don't remember which one.
I just remember a program that you use to burn "Master" or final mixes to a CD as a album and when you have loaded the whole thing on CD you could put up markers so that would show up as Track markers on the CD burn.
Am I right If Steinberg Wavelabs 6 can do this?

Either way, such programs should do the trick you want mate :)
Dell XPS 8000
Macbook 2.4Ghz 4GB RAM
Ableton Live 8.2.7
Akai APC40
RME Fireface 400
Axe-FX II

Hopefully there's a free program that will do the job. I'll have a proper look round tomorrow. Cheers all.

This won't render as one file but one way to do it in Live is this:

There's also the "hard" way of doing it, by making a Cuesheet.
You can then run off as many burns as you like with something like ImgBurn.

Don't forget to turn off warp and fade for every clip... I'm sure you have, but it's always worth checking if these are still on.
