Live sound toggle between tracks?

How do we toggle between 2 tracks to compare sound without pauses or hiccups or silent spaces?
just back & forth.
Thanks

Stick both tracks in a multitrack session and in Preferences>Multitrack, set track solo button so that it's 'exclusive'. When you hit the other track, the one you were previously listening to is automatically muted. You can put as many tracks in as you like this way, and quickly switch between any of them. I use this method for comparing takes quite often.
One of the big advantages of doing it this way is that you can also set the replay levels for each track independantly in the mixer - sometimes that's useful!

Live recordings and the click between tracks

Dear users,
I'm a very fresh user and i wanted to know if there is a way around the stops between tracks on live recordings.
I realy don't like the sound of that everytime a new number comes along.
I have done it by way of ripping and using itunes....they all have the same result between the tracks.
Somebody told me that i should learn to live with it?
Every tip is welcome!
Hans.

I know that i'm not the worlds best pc user...but i have done everything what i could think of.
Put a cd in > open itunes > and wait for the things to come.
Then i have the option to import the cd witch i do.
Before and during this i can not use this button...it stay's grey....also when i import a file from my folders its the same story...this button wont work.
I updated the itunes....and still the same.
Buttons i can not use under the " Advanced " tab:
Convert
Get cd track names
Submit cd track names
Join cd tracks
Convert ID3 tags
I have worked by the notes you've given me....and still no result.
I'm sory that i can not see/solve this problem the way that somebody else will see and solve it.
At my side the button stay's grey....
Thank you for your time and effort to help me out here

With headphones?
With speaker?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Pop sound between tracks on ipod/iphone but not iTunes

hello,
not sure if this is the correct forum but i have an iphone 3G (and an ipod nano 3G) and like to listen to music without breaks so i delete any spaces of silence in between tracks (with Audacity). my problem is that when music is lined back to back like this (without any silence), there is a pop sound at the beginning of the second track. the editing should be clean because it plays perfectly fine on iTunes.
my question: is it just a matter of my equipment being too old and needing to upgrade? is the processing too slow? would a iphone 5 be able to play just as well as iTunes?
appreciate any comments or assistance in advance.
way

Hi
If I keep them on itunes thet will sync over to the ipod when connected.We didnt want them on the opod because when on shuffle they will play which isnt what we want.any ideas appreciated.
Cheers

Can I toggle between sound output devices on iMac?

Is there a way to toggle between the internal speakers and digital audio output, or do I have to unplug my mini-TOSLINK every time I want to use the internal speakers? Thanks!

Hi, I think you will find you need to unplug the externals..to hear the internals..
In certain circumstances/setups the externals can play music from iTunes & the internals can advise of emails..L

Easiest way to remove live sound

When I edit projects I rarely use the "live" sound recorded by the camcorder. In Premiere Elements I could just select a clip in the timeline and delete the audio via right mouse click and select. In CS5 I seem to have to unlink the clip from its audio, then select the audio portion only and delete that.
Is there some quick way to drop a clip into the timeline without it's audio track, or is there a quicker way of deleting the audio for a clip other than unlink and clear?
-Roger Uzun

Craig's suggestions are probably all the best for accomplishing what you want, but I'll offer one more suggestion for the fun of it...
Personally, I like to add both the video and audio portions of a clip into a sequence, because even though I may be pretty sure that I won't use the audio, I like having the option. Instead of fussing with turning off tracks and so on, I simply hold down the Alt key and select just the audio portion of a sequence clip (or just video, if you want the audio) and right-click and toggle the Enable option. This leaves that portion of the clip in the timeline, linked to the other portion, but effectively "mutes" it. This way, if I decide I want the audio (or video) later, I just have to reverse the process, and I don't have to turn off everything in a track by muting it, so I can be selective of the clips that pass through to output.
Again, this is a more specialized function, but might be helpful at times.

Burning problem: even after no delay between tracks, still get a noise

I want to burn a CD with no delay between tracks. I have selected 0 seconds in the Burning preferences as the delay. It works except that there is a short "blip" stutter sound at the start of every track...how can I get rid of this?
Like if the speech track is in the middle of the word, the sentence will sound like "Four score and Sev[blip]ven years ago..."

Why is the ipod insisting on pausing between tracks?

My ipod 30g is pausing between tracks and there is no apparent way of altering that. This is a serious unresolved problem with the ipod which I feel needs to be discussed until Apple either recalls it or resolves the issue.
I did a search for this topic and I found that the few discussions that existed did not get the airing they deserved before they were archived.
If I didn't know Apple better I would think this is a cover-up. I called tech support and after I assured them that the itunes cd preference was set to no pause they had no answer but to re-install the software which would involve erasing all my content. And you know I got the "I haven't heard of this problem yet.." cliche tech response to de-emphasize a gaping disfunction.
Yes I'm keeping my ipod but they should not have released it for market with this audio anomaly. And yes I will merge all my tracks in itunes because that pause can ruin and entire CD if there is continuous sound.
Does anyone know if Apple is at least considering rectifying this flaw?

The iPod has never supported gapless playback.
You can suggest Apple add this feature here;

It's no big conspiracy - we're not alowed to speculate here about what features Apple may or may not add in the future, so there really isn't much to talk about.

5800 - How can i remove gap between tracks?

Hi guys, as the subjects says...Is there any way to remove the gap between tracks in order to get a continuous play with seperate songs in the XM 5800?
Thanks.

I know what you mean - some albums sound much better without the half second (or more) gap between tracks when playing in continuous mode (not usually necessary for shuffle mode). E.g. MediaMonkey on the PC works pretty great with Ministry of Sound albums for example - I suspect we'd have to have a new audio player in a firmware release. Here's to dreaming!

Pauses between tracks? (Brutal 1 or 2 second interruption between tracks)

I would like to know if there is a way to program the iPod so that when I’m listening to an album that is supposed to be heard in continuous playback (no pauses between tracks, like in operas, some new age albums and classical music) I can hear it without the brutal one or two second interruption the internal software inserts between tracks.
Here’s what I have tried. I went to iTunes preferences, in PLAYBACK, and set the CROSSFADE PLAYBACK indicator to ZERO (0) seconds. Then, I updated the iPod. There remains a very noticeable skip between tracks that isn’t there on the original CDs. It is a little better, but still too noticeable.
What I mean is this. When I listen to my CD on my computer or sound system, there is absolutely no gap or skip between tracks…the music just flows on (example : Alexander by Vangelis, or a Wagner opera). The music is continuous. No skip between tracks.
Should I conclude there is no way to import this type of recording on the iPod (and iTunes) without adding a skip (even if only a short one) between tracks?
I have a 40 Gigabytes iPod, version 3.1 of the iPod software.
Thanks

This question is one that crops up a lot on these forums and has been a major source of complaint for as long as the iPod has been in existence.
Currently the only way to eliminate the gap between songs is to import the cd as one track. You do this by using the “join cd tracks” option in the advanced menu of iTunes.
Make sure the tracks are in their correct order, and highlight those you wish to join.
No gaps, but the downside is that you will of course lose the ability to navigate between tracks, and the song info is also lost. The iPod will display the cd title in the song field in the “now playing” screen . You’ll also have one large file instead of a number of smaller ones.
If you would like to see gapless playback implemented to the iPod, add your voice to the many here.

The crossfade feature is an iTunes feature only just fyi.

WaveBurner - Click and pops between tracks? Solution!

I've been aware of the 'clicks between tracks' problems with Wave Burner, but until this last week, I hadn't had cause to master an album with cross fades for a long time. So, when at the weekend I mastered an 18 cross faded track compilation, I suddenly experienced what many users have been complaining about!
To cut a long story short, I have the solution to get round the problem until Apple fix it with an update (hopefully soon).
The cause of the clicks is where the purple track index pointer is placed in relation the frame rate.
To get rid of the clicks, you need to open the audio track image in waveburner out to its maximum resolution, ie as large as it gets, and move the purple start and end points so they snap EXACTLY to the nearest frame rate, NOT between frame rates, which is where they will be when causing clicks. I must stress that you have to open out the view to it maximum, because if you don't do that, you'll think you're moving it to the frame rate, but in fact, you won't be. eg ool at the first track purple index point; it starts exactly on 00.00.00 and ends exactly on 00.02.00 (assuming a 2 second index point). All subsequent id points must be as exact as that, they cant be in between the marker points. Hope that makes sense.
Also, If you're experiencing a 'pop' at the end of the album, then ensure that your end audio track ends on a frame rate point, and the 'pop' will be gone!
Basically, if apple ensure that any scissor cuts in audio 'click to frame rate' then the problem will be solved. Interestingly enough though, previous versions of WB didn't click to frame rate either, so why the problem is now there, I don't know.
I played around with this over the weekend, placing id points in cross faded tracks on six different albums, discovering clicks on all 6, then I did the above and 100% it solved the problem.
Hope that helps users and points apple in the right direction to issue a fix quick!!

I believe this problem is due to having the plug-in Soundflower from Cycling 74 active through an aggregate sound driver. When I changed the sound driver to another aggregate sound driver w/o Soundflower, thereby de-activating Soundflower, the problem seemed to go away. I need to do some more checking though to make sure it really is gone and it was Soundflower.

Color: toggling between changes

I'm learning Color. Lotsa fun. As I whiz through all the tutorials I can find, including those that came with Color, I notice that one is able to one-click toggle between the change and the original... but I can't find anywhere how this is done. It's so obvious I suppose, that it isn't included in the tutorials.
And I figure one of you out there will take pity on me, and save me an hour of poking through the digital manual...
All ears and expectation ... and with much appreciation...

Hi Shane,
Did some tests. The Color Scopes/Viewer gives exactly the same read as I get from Final Cut itself ... it's identical in terms of what the eye sees on these two monitors.
I did an extra little test - getting a screen shot of the various comparisons, Apple Cinema screen, Samsung, FCP & Color. When you line up the same shot in the various combinations ... it's exactly the same.
I love the idea of high-end monitors and a really pro colorist in an expensive post setup. But the last film I did (using a single Apple Cinema display) looked pretty balanced from my Apple Monitor to a huge 58 inch Panasonic Plasma, to what I saw on TV.
I think of a friend of mine, Mercan Dede, who is at the top of the charts every year for World Music - number one for years in Europe. Hans Zimmer bought a bunch of Mercan's tunes for a Ridley Scott film a few years back. Hans (with his 6 million dollar studio) wanted to know where Mercan had recorded his music. Exquisitely recorded, amazingly sophisticated layering and delays (a subjective opinion granted, but I did spend a huge chunk of my life producing albums in high-end studios). Mercan would never tell Hans where he recorded his music. I'll tell you. He did it on a 15 inch Mac laptop using Ableton Live, with a single mic, except for percussion. And a lot of hours.
All the best...

Music - "Dead Space" Between Tracks

Hello,
Got my music to BB Music Folder OK, and it plays and displays Albums correctly; BUT, unlike any other MP3 player I've used, there is a blank (dead) second or two added between each track.
I listen to music where one track is seamless to another (mainly classical) and the two second pause between tracks is destructive to the listening experience.
I have looked at options and find no setting for this. Is there a general setting elsewhere that I don't know about?

Dont bring TOS into this. What does TOS really have to do with this anyway. I simply asked a question and received a response that basicly said that I was asking a stupid question.
"Your question gets asked on a daily basis, and has been answered many times. If you search for 'gapless playback' you'll see how just how many people inquire about this."
Hmm... Kinda sounds like I am being belittled a bit because I did not do a search for gapless playback. If you will forgive me, Im not the most technically inclined person in the world. I use my ipod to do what it is designed for, LISTEN TO MUSIC, not look like a trendy person who does not really enjoy music but likes to have one anyway. You can take that as you want.
As far as him not having to do anything with apple, yes it is a good thing. Im sure that apple has better sense than to higher somebody that answers questions like that.
And guess what, I was not aware that there were so many people that had the same complaint as me. I have talked to one other person in my life with an ipod that has had that problem. I guess this would be the thing I can thank Ol' richy for the most is telling me that there are multiple people that wish they could listen to their music without a gap.
Oh, and yes I did happen to send feedback to apple. What are you, his body guard?
And I believe that it is not so much the TOS that should have been reffered to as much as the legend key, Silly me, I didnt notice that he does not have a shiny apple next to his name. But neither do you, are you looking for a job with apple, or just hang out on the forums all day?

Space between tracks

Is there any way to get iTunes or iPod to playback songs seemlessly without a space between tracks? On some albums tracks flow into one another and on the iPod this flow is lost.

My phone automatically toggles between silent and ringer mode. How to fix ?

my phone automatically toggles between silent and ringer mode. How to fix ?

Hey there Sam1011,
It sounds like you are not flipping the side switch but the phone keeps muting and unmuting by itself.
I would start by toggling the side switch manually to mute, then unmute. Then evaluate it for a bit. If the issue persists, reset the phone with this article and test the issue.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
If the issue persists I would next backup your phone to iTunes and then restore it:
