Help editing songs
Some songs I've downloaded start too soon. I want to add some time that let you see the notes coming.
How do I add that?

Re: Help editing songs
Open audacity, import your audio, and add around two to three seconds of silence to the audio track. (Whichever you prefer.)
Import the note track into dB (Feedback), and move the chart according to the audio.
Viola.
I guess that would be a nice addition to a song.ini.
sec_of_silence = 1 (2, or 3, and so on.)
If they don't already have it? I don't play FoFix anymore.

Indeedy. the same also applies if the silence at the start is too long. load the audio into an audio editor and chop out some of the silence at the start and resave it, then load the notes into one of the note editors and move all the notes forward by the same amount of time, so they are in sync with the audio again.

Re: Help editing songs
That doesn't always work though. If there are BPM changes, those don't move and the chart can get severely messed up.
Re: Help editing songs
Go into audacity, then press File>Open, then find your MP3 file, then press Generate>Silence.
Change the number to 000.001 Seconds. This will make a 1 second delay before the song starts.
Then press File>Export. then then you're done!

Yeah, it'd need to be 1 second.
Re: Help editing songs

Open the OGG in Audacity (or something), then do the Generate Silence procedure that other people had already mentioned. Two seconds should be plenty (the rest of my post will assume you added two seconds).
Then go to the song.ini and add the line
delay = 2000
If the song.ini already has a "delay = ", just add 2000 to it (e.g., If it originally had delay = 157, simply change it to delay = 2157).

Yes it will, I tried. If you do 001.000 it will make 1,000 seconds of blank space, and I don't think anyone would want that... lol
I'm kinda confused why it's a decimal, not a comma. I see why you thought it wouldn't do anything.

My Audacity adds 1 second when I type 001.000.

Re: Help editing songs
Duh, don't you guys know that you can change between various formats of time? For me, I'd prefer HH:MM:SS.miliseconds.
Gah.

I haven't touched a GH related game for 6 months. Woo. My (dead) song thread: Contains horrible things.

Re: Help editing songs
I've added 2 seconds in the ogg files and "delay = 2000" to the song.ini, and it works fine
Thanks to everybody
