For Home Cd Recorder Owners Only

[George]

If you have a home cd recorder in your audio system there is an easy way to put opening titles, credits, etc. on a KHP produced track. Put the cd you wish to pull the track from in your cd player and a blank cdrw in your recorder. select the track you wish in the player and put it in pause. select manual record on your recorder and start recording. Let as many seconds as you wish to elapse before putting the player in play. when through, finalize the cdrw. Now copy the cdrw into microstudio on your p.c.as you normally would.
When you go into KHP to create the cdg, the blank space you allowed at the beginning can be used for titles, credits, etc. Tap the spacebar as you normally would and hang on the last text
word. Contunue sweeping as you normally would once the music starts. This works well on my Phillips, and can't see why it wouldn't on any of them. Especially helpful on a track that has no lead in instrumental, but jumps right into the vocal, as the slow sweep on the last text word acts as a countdown. Obviously using cdrw's at this point would be the way to go to prevent wasting cdr's for an unfinished product. Thought I'd pass this along.

Take care,

I've used this technique and trust me it works before I got Goldwave. With Goldwave I can add the silence without wasting any discs at all and I can save the file back into the original file.
Just thought I pass that along as well. by the way I got the idea of goldwave off a thread in this site.

Goldwave rocks

[danny_g]

yes it does. I believe you were the one who mentioned it in that thread brian. If so, thank you.

You guys were right on regarding Goldwave. I've started making my own cdg's from instrumentals, including some LP's I've put onto cd's, and it's GREAT to get rid of the scratches as easily as it can be done with Goldwave, not to mention putting in the blank space at the beginning of a track, which is what started this whole thread. Thanks Danny & Brian.

Take care,

George

It also does a decent job with center panned vocal reduction. It might be the solution that AMD K6-2 users might want to check put. Actually I've treid it and had as close to the same result on after recording to CDR as I had with Vogone 1 while the file was still on my computer. I run an AMD K6-2 machine in case you are wondering. I am in the process of building an Intel machine so I can get Vogone 2. While some vocal removal is nice the ability to locate the actual vocals and reduce them would be better.
