Technical Support / Track positioning gets messed ...

Last post by Steve Crook - January 01, 2026, 12:24:40 PM

VS 15.0.1 on Windows 11.

I record stuff from the radio, been doing it for a while without problems, and I use VS and something called virtual audio cable to route into VS. Works really well. But I've been having some problems with one particular recording which spans 13 album 'sides' and 83 track breaks. I have no idea if this is breaking some internal limit or not. But...

I have created the tracks, positioned the breaks, saved my work, normalised, generated audio files, then exit VS. All seems fine. I go back into VS and I'm told that "VS has found and corrected inconsistencies in the track breaks for this album. As a result your track breaks may not be where you left them"

So I go in and find that some breaks have been moved, and, the last 10 or 15 tracks have been removed. The tracks are still defined, but just have no breaks.

So I reposition and fix it all and close VS, reopen VS and get told the same thing again, and it appears to be the same tracks being repositioned/corrected every time.

I can (of course) supply whatever files you need.

Technical Support / Re: Compression

Hi,

I'm not quite sure what you're driving at, but VinylStudio isn't compressing anything.  Does that help?

Hello again,

This is just a quick note to let you (and anybody else who might be interested) know that we have at long last started development of a Linux version.  We'll post back here when we have something to offer. 

It will be Beta test software initially, so we'll be looking for people who want to test the software.

Hi,

Sorry I missed this, but the issue should now be resolved.

I guess it is kinda quiet round here.  The forum is working but I don't always get the email notifications that I should.  I will look into this.

I am just a little concerned at not getting a response to the post I made on December 10th. In fact that seems to be the last date to which any post was responded to. There is a post dated 14 December, from contributor 'walkersmith', with content that is absolutely inappropriate to this forum (DO NOT CLICK ON ANY LINKS IN THAT POST), but that seems to be the last activity on the forum..

Is everything all right here?

My attempt to register vinylstudio on a newly built (but quite old junk PC rescued from FreeCycle) are declined with words to the effect of 'too many registration attempts'. I don't know how many is too many but I am quite prepared to 'unregister' VS on my 16 year old laptop, where I have used VS since 2017. But I can't see any option in VS for this. How do I do it?

I also have VS installed in Wine in Linux. This install does not work - should I remove it to decrement the number of installation attempts?

Are you cleaning your albums??? I'm using a method that was developed by a technical expert for the Navy. He was involved in all the clean systems on board ships, such as oxygen, nitrogen ......etc. It is quite the read at around 200 pages.

I can see that it might make sense for large batches, but for a few records at a time it makes less sense for me. The protracted procedure and large number of cleaning product and containers all needing storing would put me off that.  Also, turning the kitchen into a lab full of toxic chemicals would not be popular.

But a single-box ultrasonic cleaner with good liquid handling would be much more practical for me.
