CUE Files

K, I dont know if any of you will remember me, but I'm new so bare with me if these are stupid questions...

I was wondering what this "CUE file" is used for?

Is it just for people to look at and reference what times tracks begin in the mix??

Or can this be info be inserted into a program and it automatically cuts it up for you at those cutpts? Can they be used with Nero Express? What programs do other members use to burn mixes onto CD?

-MO-

The mysterious cue file..

A cue file is basically a .txt file that enable some burning progs to "cut" continuous large mixes into audio tracks. The mix still play continuously but you can have direct access to the different tracks if you wish. Of course it is not necessary to use a cue sheet but without it you'll have one large continous track only. CdrWin, FireBurner and the latest NERO understand cue sheets nicely. If you want to burn your mix using the cue just open CdrWin, then select "Record Disk" and "Load CueSheet", browse to your .cue file and burn. That's it! Make sure the .mp3 file and the cue are in the same dir! For mixes longer than 80mins, you need to cut the mix to 80 or 74mins if you wish to burn the mixes as audio and you need to edit the cue file. To cut the mp3 file you can use mp3DirectCut (http://www.rz.uni-frankfurt.de/~pesch/) or your favorite sound editor. To edit your cue, open it in NotePad and delete all tracks that passed your cut mix playing time.(74 or 80mins..) Also if you want to create your own Cue sheet you can use NotePad or if you feel really lazy, use CDRCue Cuesheet Editor located here http://www.dcsoft.com/prod03.htm


hope this helps

there is of course one more (and imo much more interesting) way of using the cue sheet. i think that the screen below says it all



essential for live sets and mixed albums released in a single file.
the winamp plugin is called mp3cue (as u can see in the pic above). the latest version of it is 0.94, i think. it shouldn't be hard to find on the internet.

hope this helps

can you also make a MP3-CD with cuefiles?

I want to burn Tiesto in Concert on CD so that I can listen to it on my DVD-player (with Dolby surround offcourse )

I mentioned this a couple of times already, but...

with a program called MusiCutter you can split a liveset or CD into separate files using the cue file.

So Blikkie, you can make your precious MP3 CD of TiC!!!

Thanks for the heads up. This is a really good program to use.
