equalizing volume on cd tracks ripped from commericial audio cds

Please forgive me if this question has been answered before.

I am burning cd tracks using my PC to make a mix of songs I like out of my personal collection of audio CDS. I find that there is so much difference in volume of the tracks that it is not much fun listening to the CDs I've made, turning up and down the volume control of my CD player from track to track. I am using Roxio's Easy CDCreator 5 to burn the tracks. Right now I only have the basic version that came with my PC (I did just buy the platinum version 5 from a used software dealer--though I haven't installed it yet).Sometimes I copy first to my PC using Windows Media Player then use Easy CD to burn to CD, sometimes I copy the tracks directly to cd using Easy CDCreator.

Is there a simple way to equalize the volume of the tracks I am burning? Is there a setting to change in Easy CDCreator or Windows Media Player? Or is there a utility that has a simple setting to make all the track volumes the same when recording or when burning? I am not into remastering the mixes of each track.
This really has me stumped. Am I the only one having this problem with making CD mixes from a variety of audio CDs?

Thanks for the help

Re: equalizing volume on cd tracks ripped from commericial audio

More and more programs seem to include a levelling process to even out the volume balance of individual tracks like iTunes 3 for Mac OSX. If you don't have one that does, then you would have to use 'Normalising', which is a process that increases the volume of the track by moving the peak point in the song to just below digital clipping ( 0db).

You can find normalising in almost all audio editors. There are probably some shareware of freeware ones in this sites file area. I wouldn't know which ones to recommend as I use a Mac.

Re: equalizing volume on cd tracks ripped from commericial audio

What you want is to use MusicMatch.

You won't get the features in the free version, so prepare to dish out $20.

You're talking about volume leveling, which comes with musicmatch.

Musicmatch can RIP songs into MP3 files. very helpful. It also has a decoder of its own, of which I favor much over Windows Media Player.

If you do get Musicmatch, this is how you prepare the volume:
1)Righ click the song on the playlist.
2)go to Edit Track Tag(s)
3)Click on the TAB that says: MORE
4)CLick Prepared under Volume leveling, and then OK, then it automatically adjusts the volume.

RMJ Converting to MP3 or Wav

I have copied music from CD's onto my hard drive and I can not work out how to burn them onto CD's. They seem to be rmj files, does anyone know how to convert these to mp3 or wav

thanks

Re: RMJ Converting to MP3 or Wav

Download RealOne Player which is like the ultimate player because you can play everything including DVD's and it is free! (www.real.com). You can burn them with RealOne as this program is specialised in these kinds of things!

Hope I was useful!

Re: RMJ Converting to MP3 or Wav

i have real one player and for some reason all of a sudden it wont let me burn them now. it use to all the time. is there anything else?

BR1180 / Takamine Santa Fé

Hola!

I have just bought the BR1180CD to finally record my back catalogue of songs. I use a Takamine Santa Fé electro-acoustic, but have found that nearly all of the guitar patches on the hard drive are useless - AND most of the rhythm patches too rock based. I am desperately searching for somewhere to download or buy patches for the Takamine and more percussion-based rhythms. Boss/Roland do not have a good customer support line (I can't find it!). So ... can you advise me?

The way mp3's are encoded, it's nigh impossible to play them backwards - dvd's are recorded in the mpeg2 standard, and you can't play the audio from those in reverse, either.

BUT, you can export the audio via tools such as Winamp (the wave output plugin), or the excellent and free CDEx. Then, you can reverse the output in any wave editor.

distortion

i sometimes get distortion on certain tracks when i convert to WAV and burn to cd should i burn at a certain speed

Re: distortion

: i sometimes get distortion on certain tracks when i convert to WAV and burn to cd should i burn at a certain speed

I'd do my conversions seperately from the burn process - it has nothing to do with your recorder, it's the strength of the output from your converter.
So, I'd use something like Winamp or CDEx to convert the mp3 to WAV seperately, listen to the output, and burn the final WAV's to cd.

Chances are, your burning application is trying to do you a favor and notching up the output upon conversion.

help??

is there a program that would enable me to place notes on a staff,print words under this staff and chord names above staff and then print the piece?

thanks a lot..

Help me please...

I've got this problem. Probably this isn't really the right place for me to ask for a help.
But... can't blame me for trying :p

Anyway,
I've downloaded this *mov video file in:
http://www.kissing-babes.com/tvmovie_page.htm
(Kate & Elle Scenes)
But neither scene 1, 2, 3, nor 4 could be played in Quick Time. Can Anyone help me please... try to download that files, and play it yourself. If you can play them, please tell me. Or if you can't (u have the same problem as mine then), perhaps you know where to download the codecs.

Thanks in advance.

Yes! The process is involved.
In your wave editor, take the stereo song (it HAS to be a stereo song with the vocal DEAD CENTER - nothing else works right!), highlight the left track, and invert it (reverse the phase). Mix the resulting file down to MONO - this step removes the vocals from the track. Now, take that original file and select the right track. Paste over the contents of that track with your new MONO-vocals-removed track. Reverse that phase on that. Mix to MONO again.

If everything was done correctly, you should have a vocals only track, since that's the only information that wasn't dead-center on your stereo track.

If you want to do vocal removal via a plug-in, check out Analog X's Vocal Remover. It's free.
