How long is the show and how many tracks do you have?

Which Audacity version do you have? On Windows I think it's Help > About.

Once you get your blanks made by somebody else, burn a test using a burner not yours.

I read through that several times and it seems you have either contradictory symptoms or incorrect assumptions. It also occurs to me as I write this you could have two or more problems. Nobody wrote this error has to be one thing. Post two sound clips. — One, the seemingly clear MP3 sample from the ...

Once you're inside the computer, the dB levels are pretty "simple." Overload is Zero and the volumes get quiet in negative numbers from there. For example, audiobook quiet background noise should be -60dB or quieter. Outside the computer, Sound Pressure Levels are measured with, oddly enou...

You should have a phono preamp somewhere in the system, or be recording from your entertainment music system.

This is a terrible example, but see where it would have let me set the Gap Between Songs. Audio CDs do that (the computer I'm typing ...

And don't use MP3 anywhere in the process. MP3 creates compression distortion and you can't stop it. Audio CDs use high quality WAV 44100, 16-bit uncompressed sound. If your conference was recorded that way, then stay there and don't make a lower-quality MP3 in the middle.
