Hello:

Toast 9 has been adding up to 20 seconds of "pre-roll" time to random audio tracks I burn onto CD. The audio tracks are QuickTime files that were exported from Logic 8. The tracks will play but with the above-mentioned long pause between some tracks.  The 2 second default space hasn't ever been changed. This doesn't happen on every burn, or with every track. Just happens randomly.

Please advise asap. Thank you!

How long are those tracks? I think there is a minimum track length for audio CDs but I don't know how long that is. Toast could be padding the track to meet the minimum. Just guessing.
I'm just a fellow Toast-user so please don't blame Roxio for any misguidance I may provide. And do let me know if your issue gets solved. Cheers from Eugene, Oregon!

Make sure are using the latest version as well. We had some bugs related to audio length in 9.0

The tracks vary in length from :37 to over 4:00. It doesn't seem to be based on any recurring event/file size/etc.

Thanks anyway for your reply.

It happens randomly. I've burned tracks @ :37, no problem.

Thanks anyways!

I'm going to install the upgrade later on today. If I continue to have an issue I'll repost.

Thank you very much!
