ISO: App to Separate Audio Tracks
Posted by: exilestones ()
Date: January 2, 2023 07:24

Did you ever download albums where a side of the album is one track of several songs, not separated tracks?

I'm looking for an app that will separate the big audio file into separate tracks.

Thanks!

Happy New Year!

If you have cue file with the downloaded album, use this
Medieval CUE Splitter
[www.medieval.it]

If cue file is missing - use Audacity or similar software and cut the file manually. I.e., copy a part of the file and paste it to a new file.

HereĀ“s something I picked up at beatleg.com.

Splitting a recording into separate tracks In Audacity

1) place "Labels" using Ctrl-B (Windows) at the very beginning, then at the start of every track
2) name them "01 She Loves You", "02 This Boy" and so on
3) do File | Export | Export Multiple
4) in section "Split Files Based On" I select "Labels", and in section "Name Files" I select "Using Label/Track Name"

You could probably leave the number out of the label and then choose one of the other options in "Name Files". I just do it this way because I then have the option of skipping things (think non-Beatles recordings). Like if there's a long talking section, or 30 seconds of static I want to skip, I'll just label it "00 Static" or "00 Skip1" or something like that and all the bits I want are numbered the way I want them.

It works for me.

ironbelly, Irix, and hakan,

Thank you very much!

I have maybe 100 long files to cut down. It's a lot of work and very time-consuming.

I never understood the cue file thing.

First, I downloaded the Medieval CUE Splitter. Then I realized the first project did not include a cue file.

Then I opened Audacity and followed the video. That process worked. It was time-consuming. In the end, I got the individual tracks I wanted.

The tracks separated by Audacity had no titles, just the track number. Is there a way to get the metadata onto the tracks, automatically?

Now, I'm going to get a long file with a cue file and try the Medieval CUE Splitter.

Medieval CUE Splitter lists the track number, song names, and times!

This!
If you downloaded something from torrent and that something is an accurate rip of the CD, than cue file is a file that contain information about the structure of that particular something. I.e., if you'll burn a CD-R, you'll get an exact copy of the CD with all pre-gaps and gaps between tracks. This is no big deal for The Rolling Stones but for Pink Floyd or albums with overlapping tracks it is crucial.

Also, cue file allows you to extract individual tracks from big CD image. Well, you already made this.

Most audio editing programs (e.g., Sound Forge, Cool Edit, etc.) do not automatically cut files along sector boundaries. Either change their settings to force them to split .wav files correctly (to cut on a 1/75th second CD sector boundary), or avoid them for CD tracking.

CD Wave split tracks at sector boundary, in order to avoid clicks or pops between CD tracks when creating track. [www.milosoftware.com]

All tracks are properly cut on a multiple of 1/75 second ("sector aligned", or cut "along sector boundaries)" [wiki.etree.org]

i.e:

TRACK 09 AUDIO
TITLE "Sweet Virginia"
INDEX 01 36:28:71 <-- OK

TRACK 09 AUDIO
TITLE "Sweet Virginia"
INDEX 01 36:28:84 <-- SBE
Redbook stores audio in sectors - 1/75 of a second. So this one is out of 1/75.

Anyway, aligning to sector boundaries is only necessary when you are creating a physical CD. If the music stays entirely in the digital domain (FLAC, etc.) then you don't have to worry about sector boundaries because there are no sectors. [forums.stevehoffman.tv]
