Hi everyone, I am doing a favor for a friend who wanted to put an old fav. LP of her parents onto CD as a surprise. I found the LP online- mint- & then went to Radio Shack for the RCA-8mm plug adapter. Hooked it up to my Soundblaster & used it's soundrecorder to get it onto my hard disk. Everything worked fine & now I have one, long .wav file of the album. I'd like to be able to split it up into tracks so that you can skip to the next song like a regular CD. Does anyone here know how to do that with any sort of freeware app? I don't want to buy anything as this is a one-time thing. I did d/l Audacity, which shows a "split" function- I did that, then inserted silence of 2 secs. between songs, but it still didn't divide the .wav. Any audio buffs here that can help me out? I feel like I'm sooo close but just not quite there... TIA for your time & expertise, T ;^)

Sound Forge 6.0 works great....send me an email if you want it..i will send it to you...

If you decide to use Nero.....(Using the DEMO for this project means you could do it free) follow the directions on my web page that I gave you up above but jump over the part where you are told how to get the songs from your player to your computer. You already have them on your computer.I've transferred approximately 500 songs from cassette tapes, 8 track tapes and LP's using Nero Wave Editor. Piece of cake and fun too. And the price is right !

Hi, It may depend what program you are going to burn the CD with? If you have a CD burner, you will have burning sofware. If you have it, I believe Nero 5.5+ has an index creator where you can split tracks into smaller sections. After you have selected your wav, right click it and chose 'properties' (not 'edit'). There you will find 'Indexes,limits,splits'. I expect that some fiddling in there will give you what you need. regards KevH

hI, sorry for what looks like a daft reply to your Query, following the others. When I started my Nero suggestion, there were no other replies. I guess whilst I was doing it, others have got in there. Doh!

i have used 'mp3 direct cut' which works well. but if its not an mp3 u will have to convert it first. its free just do a search on www.cnet.com/downloads
