Does anyone know how to config Acid Pro 3.0 to not include a 2sec delay before each track (when burnt onto a cd)? I want my CD to be seamless and nonstop. Thanks.

Trance,

The 2 second delay you speak of is part of Redbook compliance. It's that way on almost all audio CD's. If you want to be able to bend the rules slightly and not have the 2 second gaps, you'll need to first render your songs to 44.1kHz, 16 bit, stereo WAV files, and then use a program that supports Disc-At-Once (DAO) burning. Acid only does Track-At-Once (TAO) burning (which creates a mandatory 2 second gap). Vegas Video 3 and CD Architect 4 (a discontinued SoFo app) both support DAO burning. Acid may support DAO in the future, but it's not known at this time.

Hope this helps,
Nick LaMartina

Thanks for your help. It wasn't what I was hoping but at least I know. Looks like I'll have to take the extra step of converting to wav files.
