question from a techno-nerd - can I do this?

[L Sass]

For some of you who are more technologically savvy than I.

I coach a young drill team and we have a parade this weekend. I need to record ONLY PORTIONS of 2 songs. I need the first 1 minute 56 seconds of song A, and the first 2 minutes 3 seconds of song B.

Is there any way that I can burn only portions to a CD? Or am I stuck using an audio tape to record only the needed parts? Thanks for any info you may have.

Lorrie,

What you want to do is possible depending on the type of software you use...since I don't know what software that is the most I can advise you.

HTH. If you can send me the name of the software you use to burn CDs, I can try to help you more.

Ugh - this is what we have: Itunes, Sonic DigitalMedia LE v. 7, Real Audio, and whatever Windows XP bundles into the operating system (Windows media player). I don't think we have any special recording programs that operate like a tape recorder or such. Do I need one to do this? Thanks so much for your help Marnold!

Most of the programs you mentioned will allow you to record a portion of a song:

Here are the directions for itunes:

It looks like your best bet for what you need.

You may be able to use Sonic DigitalMedia too, however, I cannot access help at the website without registering. I would go to the help button and type in one of two things for direction:
1. Burn portion of song
OR
2. Edit song

HTH
