UncleMo Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 WOW. I wish I understood all of that. I've have some audio mods rolling around in my head but am extremely reluctant to do them because the audio mods are a pain, and plus when you import your new .asf file back into the chant crowd4a file it turns out to be a shorter file (in terms of length of the file played) than the original. Sucks. I wish this stuff was easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
