Small Acid Pro 5 problem...
View this Thread in Original format
Bigsy
I used to use the original acid many moons ago when producing original work and have only just gone back to it to do some mp3 mixing.

Basically I have done a mix (as you can see in the pic) and I want to render it sepearate tracks. I can do this but every track is the same length as the whole mix which is crap, I want each track to end at a certain point (in this case where the track markers are).

I thought by using the track markers and burning it to cd I could then rip the cd as mp3 but acid doesnt see my writer (nec 2500) so any ideas coz i'm stummped? Any markerss I can use so it will render tracks into mp3's like it would if I burnt it as wav to cd?



Thanks.
Mr.Mystery
I usually add the markers in Nero myself.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I spose I could render as a single mp3 and slice it up in any number of audio editors. Just a bit of a pain really, even more so when you concider I would then need to label each mp3 with its track name again.

You would of thought that such a advanced piece of software as acid would be able to manage such a trivial task.

Thanks, although i'm not really looking to master to CD or chop around with a single mp3/wav file. Just really looking if there is a way for acid to render individual tracks which just cover their respective song.

Can the use of regions achieve this ir any other of the markers in acid? Thanks.

use the loop region.define you area(start-end),solo the track and render'it.

Yeah, I thought of that one too, and guess if there is no better way I will probably do it like that.

It just seems a less than precise way of going about it, and a little too labour intensive for my liking :D

I find it bizzare that acid well sony doesnt provide a feature like this, its cost a bleeding bomb and I bet a large number of users would find this feature useful.....I mean mixmeister supports it ffs!
