Ghost Track; Multiple Cds Or Versions In One Project; Red-Book Validation; Ddp Import - Merging Pyramix User Manual

Ghost Track

Normally a CD begins from the first track which has a 2 second pause. Pyramix allows you to modify this and create
a ghost track; a track before the first track. To accomplish this simply add a CD Index Marker at the beginning of
your ghost track, before the first start marker. You can also edit the pause of the first track then this will create or
move the ghost marker index for you.

Multiple CDs or versions in one Project

All CD Information and CD Markers can be either "global" or per Track Group. Each Track Group that has the Desti-
nation type and Free Markers enabled has its own CD Information and CD Markers. This enables multiple versions
of PQ editing for an album to be handled and for multiple CD albums in the same document. The CD Info and
Markers displayed in the CD Tab Window follow the currently selected Track Group.

Red-Book Validation

Validate PQ: This function ensures that the PQ conforms to the Red Book specifications by carrying out the fol-
lowing checks and corrections.
• When a pause is less than 1 second, the pause is removed. (The offset is automatically dealt with).
• Track Length is set to 4 second if it is less. (The offset is automatically dealt with).
• Track count is reduced to 99 if greater
• ISRC is removed if it is incorrect
• UPC/EAN is removed if it is incorrect
This function an be undone if necessary.
