Audacity to ipod transfer (cutting music)
Hoping someone out there can help me with this. I just used Audacity editing program to re-cut my Artistic program music. I wasn't 100% happy with my coach's cut, and made some minor changes, so I did some tinkering and now have a version I am really happy with.
However, I am trying to figure out how to get the new cut onto my Itunes so I can get it on my ipod, and copy it onto a CD for my coach. Whatever I have tried is not working. Tried exporting as a WAV file, as MP3 file, and I am just not getting into a format I can play or copy. Anyone out there able to help me with this?

It needs to be MP3 format and then try burning it to disk with another program (like Roxio or Yahoo Jukebox)

If your ipod plays mp3, then what you could do is to first export to wav using audacity. And then use something like virtuosa to convert the wav to mp3. Maybe audacity does something funny with it's mp3 conversion, while other mp3 converters may work better for the ipod. Try 'virtuosa'...it is free for 30 days. Plenty of time for you to use. I bought the full versions years ago, and it is really good. At... http://www.virtuosa.com/ I think it is an aussie company too....but I have to double-check. Don't worry...they're good. |

if you are using audacity, make sure you have the mp3 plug-in. It allows you to process and create mp3's.
Then, when you are ready to bring in your new creation into i-Tunes, open i-Tunes, click on File, then select "add file to library" and navigate to where you've put it. Hopefully, that takes care of it.

Thanks everyone! This morning it worked. No idea what I did differently, maybe I was just too tired last night. I now have it copied to CD and ipod.

So, what's the piece???? Mine is "Unfaithful" by Rihanna...ONLY the music and I had to "fix" the beginning cause it was a bit chopped by my coach; although I let her cut the rest. I like my music but THIS time am only using it one year....learned my lesson, I did!

Yeah, I don't know why it wouldn't work last night, but I just couldn't access it from any program. Fine now though.
My music is Hallelujah, the Jeff Buckley version, it's for an Artistic comp so vocals are allowed. The full version goes for over 6 minutes, so it required quite ruthless cutting to get it down to 2 min 10 seconds. I even had to speed it up slightly to fit my chosen cut into the time slot - only 4%, so hopefully that won't make a significant difference to skating to it. There is only one competition per year which features Adult divisions here, so it is only a one-off performance. Such a lot of time, energy, angst and money goes into preparing for those 2 minutes and 10 seconds. Not to mention the whole costume expense.
