felttip's sound studio would be my choice.

My gear: JK Labs AKG DVC > M10
              AKG 460 ck61/ck62/ck63 > DR-70D
             
A live concert to me is exciting because of all the electricity that is generated in the crowd and on stage. It's my favorite part of the business, live concerts.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage-earner by pulling down the wage-payer. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.

I would recommend Bias Peak 2.5 VST (OS 9x) or Peak DV 3.0 (OS X) to

you can track in iTunes for free so unless you need a resample i would save my money

tell the track the start and stop time, then select convert track to wav/aiff and it will make a new track of just that portion of the song
do that with the whiole file and you now have the long track broke into however many single tracks
Mics - AKG ck61/ck63 (c480b & Naiant actives), SP-BMC-2
XLR Cables - Silver Path w/Darktrain stubbies
Interconnect Cables - Dogstar (XLR), Darktrain (RCA > 1/8) (1/8 > 1/8), and Kind Kables (1/8f > 1/4)
Preamps - Naiant Littlebox & Tinybox
Recorders - PCM-M10 & DR-60D

I was racking my brain when writing that and thought that maybe itunes was on my g3 bluberry imac when I bought it new... guess not.  I'll say it seems like ten years
