Printing Track Labels

Hi. Is there a way to print out track labels so I can create a slip case label? When I burn a CD I would like to have a printed track listing to refer to.
Thanks! Marvin

I do mine from iTunes - it works best if you create a playlist of the tracks.

So Waxy, you record the music in Audacity and then bring it into iTunes? But does iTunes recognize a Windows WAV file? Or do you export an MP3 from Audacity?
Thanks - Marvin

Marvin,
my iPod and Itunes recognize windows WAV files and play them perfectly ok.
But what I do now is to export my music as WAV and MP3 (at 192 or 256 for my classical stuff). For now I am using the MP3s as I only have a 30Gb iPod and that is already overfull - and even a 160Gb iPod Classic will not be quite big enough for all my music at 256.
The WAVs I keep for backup - and stored for potential future use in iTunes/iPod when the discs (or whatever they use for storage then) get even bigger in the future. But frankly I find it hard to tell the difference most of the time between MP3-256 and WAV (my ears are getting old ....).
Something else you could consider would be to use Audacity to create a set of WAVs, burn a CD from the WAVS - and then rip the CD into iTunes as AAC . Remember that bitrate for bitrate AAC performs better that its MP3 equivalent. And you will get CDs that you can play and/or use for backup of your music.

You could call him Water Closet...
That's what I do in my head, at least.
