I'm recording 20 soundbites of 90 second song samples--four samples in 5
genres of music (ie classic rock, hard rock, country, dance and
modern/alternative) for my new website -(up in 2weeks)
I'm recording the songs in sonar 7.2 and I'm used to mastering a bit in
Sound Forge 4.5 after the Sonar
Any tips on whether I should export all samples to SF-maximize/master and
then bring the samples back into CW or put the samples together in SF--the
idea is people will click on a tab (like hard rock) and then hear a sample
of me doing AC/DC which segues into other audio samples of Gnr, Ozzy,
Twisted-or they can click on country and hear 4 snippets of country stuff.
I'm just wondering if I will lose fidelity by taking each song into
SF-mastering that-and then bring it back into CW to marry the 4 song
examples together to make 1 file and then exporting that file and then
making the mp3--just want the best fidelity for web.
thanks
Jeff
