hi. I am trying to record songs off a cassette, which I can do. the problem is, how do I make 1 song per track rather then a whole slew of songs per track?

You're trying to burn them to a CD, right? Place a Label in front of each song on the Audacity Timeline. Don't forget the first one.

Then Export Multiple. Audacity will create a pile of individual sound files which will play as individual tracks when you import them into your CD Authoring Program.

Try to stay from MP3. Use WAV. The quality is better.
