in Audacity, go to VIEW > SET SELECTION FORMAT > cdda min:sec:frames 75fps
then go to EDIT > SNAP TO > SNAP ON
Now any edits you make will be constrained to 1/75 second increments,
eliminating sector boundary issues.
I suggest cropping the start of the file to where you want audio to
begin, then engaging the SNAP ON.

Hi,
I wonder what are you people going to on your search for a practical
portable recorder, now that DATs are going extinct.
In my case I deal with film & video recordings, where DAT was until
recently the best option. Even small Sony types, like the D7 or D8,
were a great option.
Now DAT types hard harder to find, and I ended up using MD as a second
option. In this case mostly as a backup for audio tracks in
cameracorders, which are not that great. My Sharp MD did great
recordings when used like that.
Recently Sony released a PCM MD type, but has some irritating
defaults, like for going into manual recordings you have to go through
several menus... EVERY TIME you press stop! I wonder where do these
engineers learn their stuff.
So I am looking for another option, that is cheap enough and can be
used for such purposes. Something like the M-Audio 24/96 or similar.
Has anyone been using these card-type recorders? Are they reliable?
How do you backup these cards or onto what do you back them up?
Computers are not an option, because I am looking for location
equipment and cheap media if possible. Of course then PCM MD media is
an option, and then the mentioned Sony problem is not much of an
issue.

I have a lifetime supply of dats (decks and tapes).
But I'm switching to PDAudio on an Axim; 4GB SD cards last a while,
and are easily copied to a computer later (and much faster than dat,
too).

SSIA - I have an mp3-version of this, and I'd like to have the real thing
(preferably with source info, but beggars can't be choosers ;-)). Have
tons of SY / Moore / Ranaldo to trade.

I believe DSP Quattro Pro was written by the same guy who did Spark. So
Spark fans should appreciate Quattro Pro.
