Ability to create multiple tracks from a single recording

Post by docmartn » Fri Jul 07, 2017 5:31 pm

Recently I've recorded a couple albums via my stream service. It obviously exports as a single file. Besides cutting are pasting the tracks into a new file does Audacity have a feature that would allow me to insert a break between tracks so the tracks are recognized by the CD player as tracks? Thanks John

Not exactly. You can place labels at the song break points and File > Export Multiple should give you a pile of individual sound files suitable for burning. CD Authoring programs let you select the gap between songs and the default is two seconds. Beware burning programs without this feature. They may not be creating an Audio CD.
