I can't split this ape - cue

Software & Apps
#1

First of all, what I wanted to do is to split the ape-cue into separate tracks. Usually my favourite software is cue splitter. In this case it doesn’t work as it sould, I just get one track. instead of the 8. I’ve tried to burn the image directly with nero, but I can’t. I’ve also tried foobar to no avail. Ashampoo also. I include the cue sheet here and maybe you can point out to me what is wrong.

Is [B]FILE “CDImage.ape” WAVE[/B] the problem?

#3

I don’t know TimC. That’s what I’d like to know because I’m a newbie.

#4

Usually cue splitter works for me, this time though I only get track No.3 in the end. I don’t know what the problem is.

:frowning:

#5

As TimC hinted, what happens when you decompress the APE file with Monkey’s Audio to WAV and modify that line in the CUE file to read FILE “CDImage.wav” WAVE?

#6

Well, I understood TImc was giving a hint, but didn’t know what it was. I decompress the ape, get a wav file. With both of them in the same folder, ape and wav I can burn a CD. I don;t wan;t to do it, I want to split the tracks, into individual ape files then into mp3. Maybe the ape-cuesheet are defective because with others I can do it using cue-splitter with no problem.

:frowning:

APE can’t just be split, as far as I know. You’ll have to decode to WAV, split the WAVs and then encode as you wish.

#8

I just happened to come across this on Monkey’s Audio Forum. I didn’t read the whole thing so forgive if it’s not what you are looking for but you should check it out.

Good Luck!! :slight_smile:
