Title: how do I burn a gapless cd
Post by: Fred E on February 23, 2002, 07:53:45 am

Could anyone please tell me how to burn a playlist onto a CD
so that the music is gapless-- I.E. It crossfades from one track to the next

all happiness to every one and thanks

CD's are gapless as long as you use disc-at-once. (only available when not using the "Generic Driver" in MJ)

If you need to crop out the silence like the playback engine can do, try the new disk writer in MJ 8.

Take care.

Important to note that gapless and crossfade are two different things.  The new MJ80 (as Matt says) has a feature that allows you to playback your playlist to a giant .WAV output file.  Then you could burn the .WAV file to a CD but you'd have a giant track (no track numbers).  You could edit the .WAV file in a nice sound editor (like Goldwave), add track cue points and split the .WAV file up into tracks and burn those .WAV tracks and you get exactly what you want (crossfaded tracks and individual track numbers).  Alot of work, but fun to do if you are that hardcode about it!

UPDATE:  See Doof's comments below...I forgot how MJ80 actually works.

More or less the same question
I would like to burn full albums in mp3 format on cd/mp3 encoded with each album as one song
Like this i will get 10 songs on my cd.No need to mess around when you play it on a discman cd/mp3The way playlist to a geant WAV can be a solution.But long time and a lot of free space
Any solution "on the fly'?

How can I use a different driver for my burner insead of the "generic driver"? In "options" the checkbox is grey and I can't choose it. In MJ7 I could.

Strange, I thought that if anything the list of native burner that Media Jukebox had been expanded from MJ7 to MJ8. Anyone?

ZRocker> MJ will automatically create a seperate wav file for each track when using Disk Writer. So if you have MJ play back your playlist using Disk Writer and Gapless playback, and then burn the resulting wav files to a CD and have a gapless CD. The same works for crossfading, replay gain, EQ, DSP, etc.

You can also use MixMeister to do cross-fade (or beat-mixed) recording to CDs.  http://www.mixmeister.com/
