Ron;

Yes. I've saved each file as a wave file. My process is as follows:

1. copy the entire side of an LP as a wave file using Audacity.

	a. store that side in a folder giving it the name of the LP
(Example: Jimmy Witherspoon at Monterey - Side 1)

2. visually scan the wave file to find where each tune in the "Jimmy
Witherspoon at Monterey - Side 1 "begins and ends.

	a. zoom in so that I can easily see each tune on Side 1

3. copy each tune on the "Jimmy Witherspoon at Monterey - Side 1" and store
it in another folder as a wave file. 

     	a. Name that wave file by the tune's actual name (Ain't Nobody's
Business). 

4. Bring each of these songs, one at a time, into Adobe Audition.

	a. normalize each tune to -1

5. Save normalized tune by its actual name and/or artist as a wave file.

It's a bit of work - that's for certain. However, I now have that music on a
CD to play in my car or in the house.

What concerns me, is that not all of the tunes on these CDs play well. Some
do and some do not. I have not been able to get all of these tunes to play
on a CD.

It's rather hit and miss.

I don't mind the work. But I'd like to know how to improve my success rate.
Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

Are you saving each track as a wave file?

Hi;

In trying to copy an LP to a CD, I've captured a side of an LP. My next
task, is to select each individual tune on from the capture of a side of the
LP. To date, my progress has been limited. While I've been able to select
each individual tune, Adobe Audition complains that many of the tunes are
corrupted when I try to add them to Nero for burning.

Any suggestions?

Thanks;

Stan
