I have been working on making a mix cd , taking a bunch of techno compilations and trying to make a dance mix cd ala, what you would find in the stores ; the only problem i am having is that when i record it into wav , it takes all my songs and makes it into one track... how do i split the tracks up , without having a gap ? please help me i am new to this software ...

Your best bet is to use Sound Forge (the full version, not Sound Forge Studio) for this purpose. It will split a whole WAV up into new separate tracks for burning in the app of your choice, preferably one with Disc-at-Once (DAO) burning like Easy CD Creator. (Both ACID and Sound Forge use Track-at-Once (TAO) burning. Vegas also has DAO as well as CD Architect.)

TAO requires the use of a 2 second gap between tracks. DAO does not have this limitation.

HTH,

dj4life,

You can try the methods that I have used in the past to chop up my tracks and burn mixed CD's. Check this post I made a while ago:
