Hi guys,
 
I use X1 for some years now, and I don't use it often, so maybe there's a faster way to do this I'm asking now:
When I do live recording of a band I have a 2 hourse project with more than 20 tracks in Sonar. After some processing I want to export the single songs to make a live CD. Exporting is no problem, but I'd like to have fade in/out on every song.
Till now I have exported every song and re-imported it on a new single-track project where I added fade in/out, then I re-exported every single song.
Maybe there's a faster way to do this? Can I set fade in/out already in the main project without having to create the second project?
 
Thank you very much

I created a bunch of single tracks from a long stream of audio the other day. The way I did it was to slice the WAV at the end of the first track and drag the rest quite a bit to the right. I then sliced the second track and dragged it back to the first and did a smooth fade between them. Obviously the next step is to find the third track, slice it and drag it back to the second and so on.
I was very happy with the result as it can be quite tricky to have smooth transistions when there is crowd noise and some tracks merging into each other.

Grum.

If I was doing this, I'd just export the entire thing to a single 16bit 44.1KHz wav, import it into Sony's CD Architect where you can insert Track ID's wherever you want and burn it from there.

And in CD Architect you can set fade in/out for every single song?

From memory, yes I think so, but I'm not at my DAW to check.

Ok, seems it would work with SONY CD Architect, but I wanted to avoid to use another program.
I was looking for a method to export the songs directly from my main project.

If you want to do it without exporting and importing again, bus all the tracks for a single song to a single bus, and do your fade in/out as envelopes on the bus.  Or just draw envelopes on your master bus.
