Some of my CDs contain hidden tracks at the end of the last track; after last track there will be a bunch of silence and then another song starts; I always use Audacity to hack apart the last song, delete the silence, and save the hidden track as another track. Problem is, the CUE sheet doesn't know this. How do I go about editing the CUE Sheet to alter the last track and add in other tracks?

I think it's something like this.

FILE "HTOA.ext"
TRACK ## AUDIO
PERFORMER "someone"
TITLE "something"
INDEX 01 00:00:00

Did you delete the silence, or did you completely truncate the hidden song?

If you left the hidden track on your album: use Audacity to find the point where the track begins. You must have the minute, second, and frame ammend the CUE. You can open the CUE in notepad and just look at the format. Append this to the end.


If you cropped out the hidden track and made it a new file: then follow what Firon said.

I deleted all the silence in the middle and then copied the hidden track to a new Audacity window. I then exported both the song and the hidden song as FLAC files. So there is no more minutes of silence. Just the hidden track and the original track without the silence and hidden track at the end.

In that case, you should try what I said.

Still a little confused here. Hopefully somebody can clear this up for me. I'll give all the info to hopefully make it easier to help me.

On the CD "New Medicines by Dead Poetic" it has a hidden track called "Zonshine" at the end of the track called "A Hoax To Live For"

The entire "A Hoax To Live For" track is 10:06 long. The song itself is only 2:56 long. Then there is 1:56 of silence. After that the song "Zonshine" starts which is 5:94 long.

Here's the CUE information for the last track:

TRACK 11 AUDIO
TITLE "A Hoax To Live For"
PERFORMER "Dead Poetic"
ISRC USTN10321664
INDEX 00 03:52:30
FILE "Dead Poetic - A Hoax To Live For.wav" WAVE
INDEX 01 00:00:00

How do I alter this with the changes I'm making and add a 12th track for Zonshine?

Assuming you split the two tracks and removed all the silence...

Would I have to change the "INDEX 00" time on "A Hoax To Live For" to 02:56:00 and then put the "INDEX 00" time on "Zonshine" to 05:94:00

If you actually split the tracks into two separate files and have no silence in it, you shouldn't need INDEX 00 at all. That's only to specify a pregap.
