tape to CD conversion

Post by rkott » Tue Jul 24, 2012 7:51 pm

I have successfully converted my old cassette tapes to CD. However, when playing the CD in my car player the 'skip' function will not work. Can anyone explain the step by step procedure I need to follow in order to get the proper break between songs so that I can move from one track to another when playing the CD? Currently the CD plays as one continuous track even though it might contain 12 songs.

You need to create separate "tracks" on the CD.
There's a tutorial that explains how to do this....

See tutorials 4 and 5 here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/manual/h ... to_cd.html
