using toast for gapless music- cd ripper for mac

[burntoast]

I just got TOAST 8 and I'm trying to do some compilations and mix all the cues together without gaps-overlapping each other. I hear a click between the cues. Anyway to get rid of that?

 

I used to use an excellent cd ripper software in Windows environment and now I can't find one for MAC. I need one that will rip parts of songs, not only the whole track. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Check to be sure you have Disc at Once (DAO) selected in the Advanced tab of the Recorder Settings window.

 

You can open tracks directly from an audio CD using CD Spin Doctor and then mark the portion you want to save as an AIFF file.

 

 

 

Hello,

This may seem obvious but any time you cut a section of music out of a track you risk having pops caused by the waveform not starting and ending at the zero centerline. Programs like acid that are specific loop based software automatically cut at the zero cross. I doubt Toast is set up for that. Crossfading will help but you will have to make your cues longer to accomodate them

if you don't want to go back and cut your snippets on sector boundaries or zero-crossings, you could always make sure the tracks you're going to burn together as one disc are named so that they sort in the correct order and run them through the fix SBE function of xACT.
