CD Burning Question

[morninggirl5]

I have a song (a cheer, actually) and need just the music on a CD for a program at school. Can anyone tell me how to accomplish this task?

I take it you have a CD burner? You should also have some kind of CD burning software (ie- Nero, Sony CD Xtreme). Open the software and point and click. If you don't have the software and hardware, I'm the wrong person to ask.

Do you mean that you need to edit the words out of the recording you have so you can burn just the music?

Burning the track to the CD is fairly simple if you hve the right software to convert it to CDA format -- although most newer CD players can play MP3 files from a data CD and don't require conversion first.

Editing is whole 'nother problem -- most inexpensive WAV/MP3 editing software can't edit out lyrics without also editing out the music at that point as well.

Editing is the problem.

There isn't any music during the words I need to edit, but time has become an issue, too. We scratched it from the program today.


Thanks for the info.

For future needs, you might want to do a search for "MP3 editor" and "audio editor" to see what's available in freeware and shareware for downloading.

It sounds like a basic editor would work for the particular piece you needed because you could just mute the words and leave the music. But having an editor on hand that you were somewhat familiar with would have made a big difference in knowing whether what you wanted to do was possible or not.
