You need Digidesign ProTools and Adaptec Jam. I got a free CD of an old version of ProTools about a year ago - you'd have to check out their website to see if it's still available. =20 I'm going to try to describe how you do this, but it's something I've only done twice, and I figured it out by trial and error, so I might be slightly wrong. First you import the audio file into ProTools. Select the audio region defining the first song (a stereo pair), then go to the Edit menu and choose Capture Region. Continue until all the songs are defined. You'll see a list of song/region names (in pairs, one for each channel) appear in the far right window. Select them all, then go to the Region List menu and choose Export Selected. Now close ProTools & open Jam. This is where my memory gets hazy. Click on Add Track. Click on the Regions radio button. Select the ProTools file in the File window. You should see a list of regions show up. Select all (or maybe it's one at the time). When done, make sure your first pause time is 2 seconds, and the others are 0 seconds (you can do this globally under Preferences). Click on each track, rewind a few seconds, and listen to make sure that the transitions are like you want. Click on Write Disc and you're good to go. Che
