Ok, I have a problem.. i bought like 10 cd singles and i have this prog which i use to mix so i 'ripped' the tunes to mix em all together cuz i dont have my CDJ's yet but ill get em soon, anyways, as i was saying, theyre in the computer now and while i was mixing the song kept skipping as if it was scratched, u know when u listen to a scratched cd that it skips? well i was wondering if theres any way to fix this problem! I think there might be a prog or something out there that will fix it! PLEASE GUYS HELP MEEE!!!

| What program was you using to mix? From the symptoms it sounds like your sound card has a high latency and can't handle the program's performance requirements. |

What did you rip the files as. Sometimes, when i play my mixes which can be over 700MB, the file skips when played in winamp. But this only happens on the large files. Perhaps you could save the file more compressed. Did you rip them to wav. or mp3. cos if you did it into wave, you could try doing it in mp3 128 or 192 or something and then see if that helps.
The other possibility is that the actuall files have skips in them. This would have happened when you recorded them. Make sure your running 16 bit, 44.1khz, not any higher. You don't need 24 bit or 96KHz |

The reason is....
You have bad rips....that happens sometimes, when you have a prog. leading your Cd-Rom to copy the CDA files into WAVE very fast....
Try to use differnt prog. or it's also possible if you to have damaged cds... |

No i mean.
It's just a personal mix i did using atomixmp3 (i know that prog has beatmatch and all that but i dont use it) anyways, what im saying is that when i start recording the mix the song starts skipping not that much but its listenable and if u pay attention u feel it and after some time it starts bothering u.. so my questions is: is there any progs out there that could like edit those skips or somethin? :conf: |

how do you mix without the beatmatch? You cant adjust the pitch accurate enough by hand to beatmatch perfectly. |

well, i try you know.. it doesnt come out as good as ud hear using vinyls or cds but still .. its good for practice!
but thats not the problem the problem is that the friggin tunes skip cuz i dont have enough memory so what prog could i use to edit it.. its not that its bad ripped its just that my comp cant take it cuz i dont have enough RAM so is there any prog available that can fix the skips n ? |

| simple solution... your computer can't handle what you're asking it to do... hence the skipping... get a faster computer |

| I've never use the program that you are talking about but one thing that may be the problem is the compression of the track. What I mean by this, if you have the ability to select a constant pitch while still being able to adjust the tempo, then the compression algarithm that is used will have to "delete" parts of the track in order to maintain the same pitch at a different tempo. On a turntable, the higher the tempo, the higher the pitch, and until some of the latest turntables came out, there was nothing you could do about this. With cd decks, you can adjust the tempo while maintaining the pitch. (If you don't know the difference between the two, think of pitch as how "high" the vocals sounds, versus the tempo which is how fast the beat is.) If there is a selection for maintaining the pitch, then just turn it off and there will be no problem. I had this same problem with my cd decks until I figured out that the problem was in the compression algarithm and not the cds or my recording. If you have decent monitors, you should be able to hear it live. |
