extending waveburner to bounce file-per-track
by Kevin Dixon 16 May '12

16 May '12

I'm using WaveBurner to perform mastering, but over the past few years, the number of albums who's primary destination is CD has declined a lot. My goal is to bounce the master to individual files per track, so they can be further processed as FLAC, MP3, AAC, etc. My understanding is if you bounce the project, it becomes a Mac OS package with one continuous audio file. I would be fine with parsing this file and splitting the file based on the track marker information if that file format is publicly available. Another option that comes to mind is if WaveBurner supports export plug-ins, is there a way a third-party developer can create a plug in? Thanks in advance -Kevin _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Re: Reset of Custom parameter = no work?

Let me go back and see if I can boil mine down to a simpler example and see if the problem goes away. Thanks for checking.

From people more knowledgable about the subject than me: He is doing the right thing. For example, the bolded channel ID is changed below. <publishSettings> <version>2</version> <target object="10013" channel="./*2*" name="Amount"/> </publishSettings> If he has already applied these effects in FCP, then he cannot update the IDs of channels. He would have to delete the effects and reapply them. Okay sounds like I'm doing the wrong thing. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
