cool thanks alot.
i have used audacity before. but can u serpate them all like cdwave or do u have to do them one at time?
Not sure what you mean by this. To cut tracks in Audacity, put the marker where you want the track to start, then select Project/Add Label at Selection. Then when you've got all your tracks/fades/other assorted edits complete and you want to create the .wav tracks, select File/Export Multiple..., making sure to select WAV, etc, from the work box that pops up. On the bottom right of that work box I select the option to number each tracks, so if the whole deal is called, for instance, LedZeppelin2007-12-10, then each consecutive track will be named numerically, i.e.,
LedZeppelin2007-12-10 - 01
LedZeppelin2007-12-10 - 02
LedZeppelin2007-12-10 - 03
etc...
Then, since you're using a Mac, you'll need to fix Sector Boundary Areas (SBE) for each track. That's where xACT comes in (thanks Scott Brown!!!). Incredibly intuitive to use. Just hit the SBE tab, add all the tracks you've exported from Audacity, then fix the SBEs into wav or flac format and you're ready to burn discs/upload/torrent.
Happy New Year!!!
