Exporting AIFF or WAV - Burn CD - Import as MP3

Hello!
I have a strange problem ... first off, I am a Mac Newbie. I have used PC software to record, export, burn, extract music files for some time now without a problem like this.
Recently I acquired a mac and I'm now using Garage Band to record my CDs. I sell professional CDs online and so they need to be able to function perfectly.
The problem I am now encountering is that I will export and burn a perfect CD. It sounds great when I import it back into itunes on another computer, whether that import is an mp3, a wav, or any kind. It sounds fine on that computer.
But when I take that same .mp3 or .aac file or apple lossless, and sync it into my iphone, it sounds horrible. When I say horrible I mean, you can hear the music ok, but my voice is barely audible and all garbled sounding.
However, I can take other CDs I have made from my PC, import those, and the mp3 versions on my iphone sound perfect.
Since I sell these CDs, in the event someone sticks the CD in their computer and decides that they want to import the CD as an MP3, I don't want them to have to mess around with it to make it play properly.
So, the problem needs to be rectified at the level of exporting or burning or even something before that I am not aware of.
Again, I am new to Mac. I am actually using itunes to burn the CD. Could that be the problem? Maybe there is a better software to make a better CD that will import properly?
Thanks for your help!

Well, I believe I have resolved my own problem. It's kinda silly. I think in my old software on my pc, I had it already configured to default to record the tracks in mono. Something I guess I had long forgotten about. So, changing the tracks to mono definitely has fixed the issue here. I KNEW it had something to do with what I was doing wrong in my recording software, and not an itunes or iphone problem as apple was trying to get me to believe.

I made a movie in iMovie from an imported slideshow. How do I export the movie to burn on a disc to play on a pc

I made a movie in iMovie from an imported slideshow. How do I export the movie to burn on a disc to play on a pc? I burned one copy and it didn't playback properly on the PC. The pictures played extremely slow while the music played

Hi cortiz58,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
What version of iMovie are you working with? Is your end goal that you need to play the file on a Windows computer, or is it that you need to burn the file to DVD?
See this link for tips to re-wrap your file for Windows:
How to create a video for playback with Windows/XBox/PS3/… etc?: Apple Support Communities
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5781
If you export the iMovie file as a .mov file, you can play it in iTunes for Windows on your PC.
If you want the ability to burn to DVD, then you may consider downloading the free 30 day trial of our professional video application. Final Cut Pro X can import your iMovie project and burn it to DVD.

Wave burner mp3

I am sending a mp3 track via email and I have bounced it down from logic pro as mp3
I then import it into wave burner which automatically converts it into an audio file for mastering.
How does one bounce this file back to an MP3 file in order to reduce the size from approx 37 m/bits to about 4.3 m/bits as an mp3 file.
There does not seem to be an export window,or function to enable it to be converted back to an mp3 file.
Any answers
Thanks

I realize that this is slightly off topic from your initial post, but you've said something that raises a concern: you mention that you bounce files into mp3 format from Logic, import them into Waveburner (which converts them to AIFF), and then intend to bounce them again into mp3 format. This process would be a bad idea, since you would be running the mp3 compression algorithm twice, reducing the quality of the audio considerably. When any program imports an mp3 file and rerenders it as AIFF or WAV, it is not a true lossless file, but rather a lossless representation of a lossy file. Or, in otherwords, it is just a high-fidelity copy of a lower-fidelity audio file. You really ought to bounce AIFF files from Logic, do whatever mastering you intend to do, and then convert the bounced file into mp3. I realize this seems to be several steps, but it is necessary to avoid losing quality.
I would like it very much, however, if Waveburner could render mp3 albums (and especially simultaneously export CD images and mp3s, much as Logic can do AIFFs and mp3s at the same time). Hopefully the developers find a way to do this.

Export WAV to Multiple ID3 Tagged MP3s

Did a search in the forums here and elsewhere online, didn't seem to find the answer... though quite a few people asking. I have a single WAV file recording that I've split up into individual named tracks using cue markers. Each marker is named as the track title, as outlined in Adobe's how-to videos. In the Metadata panel (Cmd/Ctrl+p) global ID3 tags include Artist, Album, Date and Genre. If I added a title or track number, it gives me the same title or track number for everything when exported.
When I export "Audio within Range Markers", with "Include markers and other Meta Data" checked, I get almost what I'm looking for but not quite. It exports individual mp3 files named by marker (as per my settings). The ID3 tag Title, however, isn't populated with the marker title and Track Number is always left blank.
Is there no way to export from a WAV to multiple MP3's with complete ID3 data? If the title and track number cannot be auto populated by, what I'd assume would be the marker title, is there a way to set individual track ID3 tag data in the master WAV file that'd carry out when exported?
I'm using Audition CC on Mac OS X 10.8. I don't see complete ID3 tag data in VLC, iTunes or in file properties.
Thanks for any help, or if someone can point me in the right direction.
Here's a visual of what I have set up:
Update:
Unable to find a viable solution within Audition itself, I'm using the free app MusicBrainz Picard which seems to do the job a bit quicker than VLC does. It's unfortunate to have to rely on a third party app for something like this especially since there is some ID3 tagging capabilities already in Audition. Hopefully I'm just missing something, would love to have these "Master WAV" files with all this data already there in case I have to re-export in the future..

Hi,
You can convert WAV & aiff tracks to mp3 in iTunes.
Firstly set import settings in preferences to mp3. Next select tracks that you wish to convert, ctrl click and select convert to mp3 from pop up menu.
A new copy of the file will be created and all metadata will be preserved. You will need to manually move to new playlist if you are not using a smart playlist. You will need to delete original file if you don't need it anymore.

Problem with Wave Burner

Hi
I'm having a problem with Wave Burner hanging when I try to play audio files. The last time I used it, several months ago, all was well but now after importing my audio files and pressing play the program hangs up and can only be closed with force quit. This also happens opening saved files which played previously. Logic and Pro-tools are still working fine. No problems there.
Im using a digi003 with Core Audio. Logic 8.02 OS version 10.5.8. I mac 2.66 dual.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

I thought I'd try this again
In Wave Burner if I select the internal audio as playback it works. It's only when I select the Digi003 as playback that it hangs. It used to playback through the 003 fine.
Anyone?
Thanks!

Exported AIFF file out of sync

I have a 1080i HDTV sequence in FCP 6.0.6, 48KHz 16 bit audio. Video clips are from a Canon 5DMk II transcoded to ProRes HQ via Streamclip. I was going to do a little audio cleanup using Bias Peak, so I exported an AIFF file of the completed sequence from FCP. Something is goofing up the exported file's rate as it is now running slightly longer than the original. As a test, I exported the audio from 1 clip and immediately imported it back into FCP, placing the test audio in the sequence under the original audio, then listened to the mix. As soon you hit play, you can hear the audio going out of phase with itself. Checking the sequence properties, I have 30fps/48Khz/32 bit floating point. Video Clip properties 30fps/48Khz/16 bit integer. Audio clip properties 48Khz/16 bit integer. AIFF created by: File>Export>Audio to AIFF{s}. What do you think?

Ran the clips through MPEG Streamclip again at 29.97fps and created a new Project with matching Sequence Settings. Exported AIFF matches original audio perfectly. We are now A-OK.

Wave Burner

I am trying to import songs that have seperate left and right wave files. I can't seem to get them to line up. It seems that Wave Burner wants to treat the left as if it were a stereo file and the right as if it were a stereo file.

If you are only using logic and wave burner I think you can keep bounces as interleaved files. Go back to source sessions and bounce files as stereo interleaved.
You should have no troulbe in waveburner after that.

Masterd files back into wave burner

Hi everyone.
Im currently getting my projects mastered abroad; usually when I master locally the mastering engineer can embed the my ISRC codes and information on a CD ready for duplication. However I dont think I can get a CD sent to me, it would just be the mastered WAV file.
Can I take the mastered WAV file back into wave burner to insert the relevant information and codes and export it back out without effecting the file?

That doesn't sound like a problem to me as long as you don't add any plug-ins, normalize, or make any volume level changes. If the mastered files come back as individual tracks, you will have to deal with timing gaps between tracks. If they come back as a single file, you will need to insert track markers.
Out of curiosity, where do you have them mastered? Are you getting good results?

I updated to Itunes 10.6.1.7. over 6 months ago on my windows XP desktop.It's worked well. Recently, on startup, a dialog box appeared which read: Itunes was not properly installed. If you wish to burn or import CDs please re-install Itunes. Please help.

which ended with an error message and a code 2330.
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

After installing any version of itunes. Told failed to install properly and could not burn or import music from Cd's. Also will not allow eithre one of my 2 ipods to sync with it as well.

Export from Apex 3.2 and import to Apex 4.0

I apologize if this has been asked before (and I am sure it has).
We are about to move all our Apex/Oracle apps to a server where Apex 4.0 is installed. Our current Apex version is 3.2. My question is can we export from Apex 3.2 and import in Apex 4.0 and expect everything to work (assuming it all works fine in Apex 3.2 and all Oracle objects were moved properly to the new server , both servers have Oracle 11g).

I am having trouble finding "update application" under any of the utilities.
Also one of my applications gives me the following error when I try to import it from Apex 3.2. to 4.0
ORA-20001: GET_BLOCK Error. ORA-20001: Execution of the statement was unsuccessful. ORA-02290: check constraint (APEX_040000.WWV_FLOW_WS_RPT_CHART_AGG_CK) violated <pre>begin wwv_flow_api.create_worksheet_rpt( p_id =&gt; 24053127534342788+wwv_flow_api.g_id_offset, p_flow_id=&gt; wwv_flow.g_flow_id, p_page_id=&gt; 60, p_worksheet_id =&gt; 24052412232342516+wwv_flow_api.g_id_offset, p_session_id =&gt; null, p_base_report_id =&gt; null+wwv_flow_api.g_id_offset,
I have no clue how to fix that.

Will converting files from .AIFF to .WAV affect ANY aspects of the audio?

I have to ask this question because I am submitting my mastered tracks for digital distribution right now. I have them in .AIFF but they need to be uploaded as .WAV. Please let me know. I don't have the heart to go through and listen to each individual track once i've converted them all to WAV. I'm ready to get it done!
Also, please let me know the easiest way to convert these AIFFs into WAVs. Should I just Bounce them in Logic as .WAVs. Thanks a bunch. Excuse the simplicity of this question. I'm just very vulnerable right now that i'm about to FINALIZE my album. I don't want to take any chances.

Converting from .aiff to .wav will change NOTHING concerning the audio.
You can batch convert from the Bin in Logic, do the whole lot in one swift stroke. Don't change sample rate or bit depth when converting, let the mastering house do that if need be.

How to find and install Wave Burner?

It had good options such as noise reduction, which in logic do not work properly (silencer). And there were other good options such as spectrum View edits.
So when I have new system like mountain Lion and I downloaded Logic 9 from app strore, am I automatically deprived of using programs which I got with boxed Logic 8?

The version of Soundtrack Pro on the Logic 8 DVDs is not compatible with Lion or Mountain Lion and therefore cannot be installed/run
Actually, it IS possible to install STP2 from the original Logic Studio (Logic 8) installer (using Pacifist), and it does seem to run OK in Mountain Lion (though I have not done much with it since I have STP3):
Waveburner 1.5.2 and 1.6.1 also run.
That said, there were/are a couple of *really nasty* bugs in STP 2, particularly regarding the Noise Print/Noise removal process. STP 3 is much much better.
Perhaps the OP can track down a Logic Studio 2 boxed set, and gain the benefit of STP 3?
