But when I pull tracks into the compilation, a 2-second pause is listed for each. When I start a new compilation, under General Options, I select No pause between tracks. Both Nero Express and Nero Burning Rom (version 7) keep reverting to the 2-second default, no matter what I do. To make matters worse, I'm not even able to get rid of the annoying 2-second gap between tracks. It seems that you have to have the same gap between all tracks, period. This would be great if you wanted to a certain pair of tracks to have no gap between them, while other pairs could have a normal one or two-second gap between them.īut now I think I was misinformed on that account. I was told that Nero allowed you to set any pause between any pair of tracks.


I’ve heard of MP3/AAC chapter markers, but that would be a different usage.I think I'm one of two people who actually use this software to make audio CDs, instead of copy DVDs. The only place I see in Wavelab metadata to add markers is in CART, but that’s not used in MP3 or AAC.Īs far as I know, what you have been told is correct: “pause” is added to the end of file, and there is not a “CD like Index 0 Index 1” corollary in the commercial digital file music album world. If you look at the metadata of the file in Wavelab or MP3Tag, there are no markers indicating where to “start” a pause, which would be the only possible way to do this, but would probably be of no use on most players, which is why this is never done as far as I know. If you open the files in Wavelab or listen in headphones, you can see there is room noise out to the end of file.


What you’re seeing to the right of the playbar in iTunes is a countdown of the entire file (not a switch from count-up to count-down as on CD) and the last 3 seconds of “silence” are just counting down to end of file. These just seem like standard MP3 album files with “pause” included in end of file, as on all digital albums AFAIK.
