Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I cant figure out how to get the music from the CD to a LOR-usable form on my computer! I thought I understood the process, but obviously, I dont! Can anyone do a "step by step" walk thru for me???Or, is there an online tutorial or book that explaines the process? Ya'll make it seem sooooo easy! I know that I can do it, but I just need to take the "remedial" course first!I found a great CD with jazzy, upbeat Christmas music. I downloaded "Audiograbber" and installed it. I disabled Windows Media PLayer, so I could use Autiograbber instead. I put the music CD into my computer. I started Audiograbber NOW WHAT???Thanks!

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 You need to rip the song from the CD to your audio folder in LOR. I use freerip program. You can get it at freerip.com. Then select the audio in your sequence edit to that song.Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Oh, make sure you rip it in a wav format. It will make things easier.Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I can only say that Audacity seems to be the favorite free editor for everyone. Not being familiar with Audiograbber, I went and looked at it... and was immediately confused.I would honestly suggest uninstalling Audiograbber and downloading Audacity. You'll find it extremely easy to navigate and figure things out just by clicking around.http://audacity.sourceforge.net/Tad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Hi Kathy,I would not disable Windows Media Player.... On the LOR support page at: http://www.lightorama.com/support.html we have a page on how to rip music: http://www.lightorama.com/RipMP3.html ... That should help.

What I did was change the properties so that all the different kinds of audio files did not automacally open with Windows Media Player. Sorry for any confusion!Also thanks Dan, I will be checking those links! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Kathy I just use windows media player to rip the files to an mp3 format. You really dont need any other program to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Just be careful, if the song is protected, I found if you rip it right to the CD, it still may not work.Try burning it once more to remove the protected license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Thanks all! I finally got it installed and working....Now for the real work: SIEQUENCING!!That is, after I figure out what I did with those pesky gridlines. I seem to have lost them...Not sure how I did that either, so cant backtrack and fix it....Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
