What is the simplest way to mix songs together then burn? I have been able to bring up the tracks and paint them out, but i'm having trouble mixing them, similar to a dj would mix the music. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Try overlapping the end of one song's event over the beginning of another song's event on the timeline. Select both and then press F on your keyboard. (You can also choose the fade type once a quick fade is inserted by right-clicking the fade and choosing, "Fade Type," from the pop-up menu.)

At that point, if you use ACID Music Studio 5 or ACID Pro 5, you can insert CD track markers and burn using Disc-at-Once (or DAO).

Are both songs to end up on the same time line, or seperate one's as they fade together. How many songs can I mix before I have to burn? The reason I ask, is that I have put diffrent tracks up and played, however they all play together, I hear all (4) the songs at once.

Time goes horizontally across the screen. If you want the second song to play after the first, slide it to the right so that it starts right underneath where the first song ends.

Now I cant seem to keep all the songs on there own beats per min, they keep changing , one song faster than the next. How do you get them back to their original B.P.M.??

Change their track type to One-Shots.
