Unwanted gaps between tracks on CD
I have cut up a live concert recording into individual WAV files. I assembled them in a single track of a Multitrack session. I overlapped the tracks and allowed auto fading to smooth out the transitions between selections and carefully placed the CD Track Markers where I wanted them near the overlap. It plays perfectly in the timeline. When I insert the tracks into the CD Layout I set all the pause values to zero and burn the disk. When I play the CD there is a very brief gap of silence between the tracks, not what I wanted in a live concert recording. I have no way of measuring it, but I suspect the gaps are the durations of the overlaps. The smooth transitions I hear in the timeline are gone. This sounds like a bug. Any ideas?
Thanks
Well actually it should work... but if you have markers set on non-CD boundary times, the chances are that you'll end up with gaps where the track indication has been set at the next boundary. What I'd suggest initially is that you go back to your edited file, set the time scaling on the time line to CD, and then set the snapping so that it snaps at CD boundaries. Then, reset the markers to land on them, and try again.
If it doesn't work properly then, we'd like to know about it!

How do I define gap between tracks in playlists?
how do I define gap between tracks in a playlist in iTunes? (So that the gaps will be a part of the playlist after syncronizing to an iPhone.)
This is for tracks imported from LogicPro, not ripped from a CD.
Thanks for answerSince iTunes has no such feature, the way to do it is to create short tracks of silence. Add them to your iTunes library, and insert them as separators between other tracks in the playlist. You can use the same track multiple times in the same regular playlist.
I have not used Logic Pro, but I am fairly sure it can be used to create a short track of silence. -
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!

Gaps between tracks...
I am an EDM DJ and there is nothing worse than listening to a set with gaps between tracks. Upon burning a cd via iTunes I make sure that the set is gapless and specify a 0 second gap between tracks. Why am I still getting gaps in the final burn?
Actually, I have never had this problem using other burning software (windows). I seem to only have the issue when using iTunes. Obviously burning with iTunes is the way to go versus using Toast, etc...
Any other ideas? -
Gaps between tracks still?
Does anyone know if Apple have addressed the gaps between tracks issue? I know you can join tracks, and that's not what I'm asking Would be great if you could listen to mix CDs properly at last....
Someone else has asked this already, see Ryan Goshorn, "Gapless Playback on Nano?", 06:44pm Sep 8, 2005 CDT
...and it appears the answer is that the gaps are still there. -
Hi -
I imported an album that has no gap between music tracks, but in iTunes there is now a ~1 sec gap between tracks which also copies across to my nano. Is there a way to edit/adjust these tracks so there is no gap without haing to re-rip the whole album? It is quite annoying.
TIA,
CharlesI did not even realize that this issue occurred, until I was listening to Abbey Road on the IPOD. Searching for Answers it looks as though Apple needs to provide an enhancement to resolve this with an Itunes service pack and ipod firmware upgrade.

Adding a gap between tracks AFTER they've been purchased from iTunes?
Hello.
My son gave me his old iPod (white, 10gigs, 2nd generation?), mechanical click wheel. Very nice. Already backed up my System to the little devil.
I've been buying music from iTunes, typically classical music. I just added to the Mac and to the iPod a small chamber music piece in four movements. Each movement is treated as a "song." When I play them in (from? on?) the computer, they run together without any gap in-between. Is there any way to add a very brief pause between the movements? These are not ripped from a CD where, I gather, you can add gaps between tracks. The question, here, is: Can I add a gap +after the fact+, once the purchased and downloaded tracks are in iTunes?
Many thanks for your help!
AlarikAh I see. In that case, you have to switch your iPod over to manual updating rather than automatic updating...

Zen Micro: Is the gap between tracks nor
I bought a Zen Micro mainly because I was told that it does not insert a gap between tracks. The trouble is that mine does insert a tiny, but incredibly annoying, blip between tracks.
I would really appreciate if another Zen Micro owner could tell me if this gap is normal or there is something wrong with my unit. I have tried 3 different levels of firmware, various formats and bit rates, but each time media player plays tracks seamlessly, but the Zen Micro inserts the gap.
Thanks in advance,
IanThere is a somewhat technical reason as to why mp3 files cannot play seamlessly. Its because each part of the mp3 is split up into frames. You can only have frames, you can't have half frames or /4 frames. So I guess when a song ends, the little gap is the rest of the frame filling in space so it can be read properly. There is only one player that I know of that can actually skip the blank part of the frame and play gaplessly, I think its one of the Rio players but I can't remember to be honest
If I'm completely wrong in my explanation, someone please correct me -
Playback without gaps between tracks... ?
Please can someone help me. I have lots of mixed CDs and would like to listen to them on my Nano without the standard 2 second gap between tracks!
Any ideasThis 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.
Be aware also that playback of single large audio files can shorten battery playtime between charges.
If you would like to see gapless playback implemented to the iPod, add your voice to the many here.

Stop gap between tracks on playback
Is there anyway to stop the gap between tracks on the ipod shuffle? I want to play from one track to another smoothly without ANY gap at all so my playlist plays through like one continual mix but with track markers so I can skip on.
As always, someone please correct me if I am
mistaken...
From the information that I can find, I don't believe
the iPod Shuffle supports Gapless Playback as the
iPod Nano and iPod with Video do.
Sorry
You are correct!

Gapless Playback on iPod
iPod does not support crossfade playback and only some iPod models support gapless playback. For those models that do, all files that support gapless playback are played gaplessly whether or not the "Part of a gapless album" option is checked.

For my Clip Sport, I rip CD tracks to Ogg Vorbis files. Often a continuous span of music is divided into multiple tracks. On the Clip Sport, I get a slight gap of slience between tracks. This never occurred with my two Clip Zip players. I tried one of the selections in question on a Clip Zip, and also played the files from the hard drive on my Linux PC. Both played perfectly with no gap. I updated firmware from 122 to 125, with no improvement. Any help is appreciated.
Miikerman wrote:
Now, yes, gapless is great to have. But, "renders the player almost unusable"? Really . . . ?Well, yes. Most of my listening is classical, and it is common to have a continuous span of music in multiple tracks. As an example, in Antal Dorati's 1964 Mercury recording of "The Miraculous Mandarin" by Bartok, about 28 minutes of uninterrupted music is encoded as 23 tracks. Perhaps you can imagine how tedious it is to combine these, especially when it was not necessary with Clip Zip. From my perspective, this is an idiotic limitation. I am usually ripping from CDs, but even with downloads, continuous music is often more than one file. Clip Zip appears either to have been discontinued, or availability is severly limited. I returned the Clip Sport for a refund and ordered a Clip Zip online. SanDisk support has been unhelpful. The rep usually does not seem to understand simple questions, and even more often fails to give a useful response. He had no idea that Clip Sport could not play gapless, for example. The headphone jack n my original Clip Zip has a bad connection, and I am assuming it is not practical to repair it. -
How do i remove the gap between dance tracks on a mixed CD when i play them on my 20G colour ipod?
Hi Neil - You can only do this when you first import your CD into iTunes. To do this select 'Advanced' then 'Join CD Tracks'. The whole CD then gets imported as a single track. The only drawback is that you can't select individual tracks for playback. For CDs where I sometimes want to play continuous and at other times I want to select specific tracks I import 2 versions, one joined and one as per normal.
Cheers - Neil. -
Unwanted gaps between images in Internet Explorer
I have sliced a image web page in Photoshop and exported it
to .html and images. It looks perfect in IE7 and Firefox. Then
brought it into Dreamweaver and deleted the large image in the
content area and inserted a table into the content area. Now when I
preview it in IE7 there is a gap between the top image and the two
images on either side of the content area. Borders for all three
images is set to zero as are cell padding etc. It displays
correctly in Firefox and Dreamweaver but IE7 places a gap between
the images. How do I remove the gap using HTML tables?>I have sliced a image web page in Photoshop and exported

> images.
That's a bad start. The HTML written by graphics apps (and
indeed by any
'wizard') is fragile, and unsuitable for any use other than
prototyping.
> Now when I preview it in IE7 there is a gap between the

> and the two images on either side of the content area.
This is precisely the symptom of having used a graphics app
to write your
HTML. Why? You have changed the ground rules (i.e., the shape
of the
content) by deleting the large image and replacing it with a
table. When a
wizard writes your HTML, it writes it to EXACTLY reproduce
the shape you
have given it. Change that shape and you change the way the
fragile code
adapts - resulting in a breakage of your layout.
The principal culprit is the use of col- and rowspans by
these wizards -
... colspan="3">
You can read more about this here -
http://apptools.com/rants/spans.php
The solution is to bite the bullet and learn enough HTML that
you can create
your own layouts without relying on a graphics app. Otherwise
you will
have this problem continuously.
1. When I need to merge cells...
a. If they are horizontally adjacent, instead of merging
them, I end
the current table, and 'stack' a new one underneath it with
the desired cell
configuration.
b. If they are vertically adjacent, then I end the current
table at the
row ABOVE the row where the need for merging begins. I then
start a new
table with two cells in one row, and place a properly
structured inner table
in each of those two cells.
2. When I need to split cells, I just insert a nested table
with the proper
cell configuration into the cell I would otherwise split.
The goal here is to completely avoid merging or splitting
cells (i.e., using
col- or rowspan attributes in your table markup), since
that's what makes
Layout mode's tables (and any wizard's tables) so fragile.
