0:30 Soulseek the artist plus FLAC
1:00 Download files, go to the complete folder.
1:15 Gather them in some new folder, say /data/audio/music/flac/artist
1:30 Normalize inconsistent FLAC file names and de-duplicate.
1:45 Have another folder for wavs, say /data/audio/music/wav/cds/cd1
2:00 Visit flac-2-wav websites and use up their DAILY subscription-free limit,
2:25 (a bit nervous to show this to the web...)
2:50 After the WAV files in your download folder, move them to the wavs folder.
3:20 CDBurnerXP - but first you need to clean up the file names.
3:40 In the intro dialogue, select audiofiles, NOT data files.
4:00 Take note of song order, and respect maximum size (700mb, 22 songs here).
4:33 Have a CD/RW disk ready, if necessary erase its contents first.
4:44 Instead of cross fading set pause between songs to 1-2 seconds.
5:00 Do not finalize - otherwise you can't erase your CD/RW!
6:00 I bought Double CD Sticker sheets from HEMA. Costs €5 for 15 sheets (=30 covers)
6:35 I made the template from Sight.png, a file I got from Bullet team, for the correct A4 format.
7:10 You muat make a custom template for whichever CD sticker solution you have ofc.
7:30 The images are just png or jpg files, which you prepare in advance.
8:00 Make several screenshots, I use Greenshot which works wonderfully.
8:20 Next you need the titles, from a directory listing, i.e. type CMD, then dir /b
8:40 Go to the WAV listing...
9:00 Mark the output and paste it into Notepad++.
9:40 Remove extensions, number the files, it's for how to show on the artwork.
9:55 Take note of proper capitalization, and contrasting colors.
10:20 To change text font color, click two icons in the color palette twice, each.
11:00 Copy lyrics from site like genius, but paste onto Notepad++ to make it harmless.
11:20 Use the Open in a New Tab feature to avoid back and forth (anti enshittification).
11:50 Scroll down for the other half and copy as well (anti enshittification).
12:05 Paste into Notepad to get rid of secret links, then to Word 97 or 2000 doc file.
12:19 Listen to the burned CD entirely for quality check.
12:30 Follow along and correct the typos from the crappy lyrics, in Word.
12:41 Don't forget: printed text should be in Serif. Don't blindly print fonts as-is.
