Last post by Paul Sanders (AlpineSoft) - September 02, 2025, 07:47:08 PMHi,
Most of what you ask for is not possible but there are a couple of tricks which might help you:
1. There's a button to display the track break markers in the Cleanup Audio Window in the toolbar beneath the the waveform display.
2. You can toggle between the Cleanup Audio and Split Tracks windows by pressing back tick (`).
So (for example), position the cursor in the Split Tracks window and then press `

For comparison purposes, I have uploaded another file in which I have added the custom tags manually using MP3Tag. Also a screenshot of the tags by dbPoweramp.
Thanks

Last post by Muberos - September 02, 2025, 06:46:50 AMThanks Paul,
I have uploaded a saved file from the album, along with some screenshots showing the custom tags (5 in total) that I tried to include. I have also shown a screenshot of the file tags as reported by dbPoweramp which doesn't see any of the custom tags. If I add the tags manually using MP3Tag, then they are shown OK.
Cheers,
John

Technical Support / Track skip in Cleanup Window
Last post by Lttlwing16 - September 02, 2025, 01:19:56 AMFirst time posting, and want to say really appreciate the software. It has made converting my vinyl library much less painful!
That said, now that I'm getting into the groove of the software (pun intended), I had a question and/or request.
Is it possible to quickly move track to track in the cleanup window without switching back to the split tracks window? I've read the help file up and down and can't seem to find it.
Moreover, it would be great if the cleanup window could "lock" the current track as I'm working on it. This way I can jump to the beginning of the track with the keyboard shortcut I have setup for (<>). I can use the split track window to select the track and zoom to it, but cannot lock the track at its beginning and end time stamps.
Even indicators in the corrections list of where each track starts would be helpful.
An even bigger upgrade would be to have the option in the cleanup window to work on each track individually instead of per side.
Either way, really enjoying the software, and many thanks for the time and effort thus far!

Last post by Paul Sanders (AlpineSoft) - September 01, 2025, 06:59:56 PMMaybe MP3Tag isn't reporting the tags. We definitely put them in there. Can you send me a file to check? You can upload it here:

Last post by Muberos - September 01, 2025, 01:11:03 PMIndy33, that's not the problem I'm having. I can tag the files just fine using MP3Tag, but I was trying to use the custom tag feature of Vinylstudio to populate some tags when I save the tracks after splitting them.

Technical Support / Side Markers Usage ?
Last post by bshonbeck - September 01, 2025, 12:55:47 PMI was wondering what additional use the Side Markers have (vertical dashed gray lines) other than to indicate where a needle up/down may have occurred. Are they actually just indicators where the recording was paused/stopped? Does the software use them to make any decisions or are they benign? I ask because I see instances where things I've done have caused extra Side Markers to appear (using Pause Record comes to mind). I couldn't find any detail in the manual other than that to remove them, the recording up to that point must be re-recorded. I've let them remain in the recording and have not experienced any issues from not eliminating them. Is there a reason to remove them?
As a VS Noob, I'm really enjoying VS's ease of use compared to the Audacity workflow I had used a decade ago. Great job Paul !!

Technical Support / Re: Turntable recommendations ...
Last post by bshonbeck - September 01, 2025, 12:32:19 PMI use a standard turntable plugged into a Parasound Zphono USB device. It is very well made, has a front level control that works on the USB output. It has both line and phono inputs, selectable RIAA equalization, selectable rumble filter, and selectable Mono output. It is AC powered so it doesn't load your USB port. No special drivers, just plug it in and it is recognized (future proof). It only digitizes to 44.1k and 48k I believe.
