I just took over another thread talking about ripping albums.....and well, the topic didn't belong. So, thought I'd start a thread here about ripping vinyl. I'm sure there are other threads where this is discussed...but I can't find them.
Adam made a comment about for a single album, he makes only 2 files. File 1 is side a, File 2 is side b.
So, as far as I can tell, he has a single file, that plays all songs on side a. As far as I can tell, this means he doesn't get so see the individual songs on side a, nor can he skip from song to song...if he wishes.
I may be right, or I may be wrong. I'm still not sure. In the meantime, Kap says (I think it was Kap) just use a cue file. Well, I don't know what a cue file is...don't know how to make one...don't know anything. Maybe a cue file is something that works alongside the single file that Adam has, and somehow converts it to show all songs? I dunno.
I have ripped several albums before in Audacity, and manually created the stops between songs, assigned song name, etc. To me, it's quite a bit of work and a big hassle. I had asked if there is an easier way.
Anyway - I'm rambling a bit. One question at a time.
Let's assume I do what Adam does, and simply rip side a as a whole and that is my file. What options do I have from that point forward to visualize the individual songs while listening in Foobar?
Jeez - if you can all follow my drift, you're better than me. LMAO!
