cd creation in PT or RB.

from rharv  on pgmusic off-topic forum


Here's how I do it-
Mix all your songs down...
Then open a 'New' file in PT or RB.
Set the cursor in the song at 1-1-0.
Use 'Audio-Import wave file' command to open the first song.
Click the double arrow to fast-forward to the end of the song.
Now hilighlite track 2 and use 'Audio-Import wave file' to import the second song.
Follow same routine for rest of songs.

When done importing the whole CD, listen and adjust tracks (keeping mastering concepts in mind) Then choose next route from below-
Either:
1.Use 'Audio-merge audio...to stero wave file' command to write one huge wav of the whole CD.
2. Use the 'solo' button and then merge each track down to stereo wave file again, knowing they are balanced.
I usually select number 2, and rename them so I have the originals still available until I'm done with the project. Then the whole project, with all versions, gets burned to DVD and backed up to another drive for future reference.
