Can Nero do THIS?
I've looked at a lot of these kinds of tools and I think I decided on Nero as well, but there's one thing I want to be able to do and I haven't seen any tool specifically say it can do it.
I've recorded a lot of conerts from the radio and/or TV onto videotape rather than cassette to avoid having to switch cassettes during the broadcast. Now that I have a CD burner on my PC I want to record these concerts onto CD. I'd like to be able to insert track markers at the beginning of each song rather than record one track that's a whole CDs worth of material. Does Nero, or any other similar tool, allow me to do that? I guess I could also record the whole concert into a single huge file on my PC, open it up in a WAV editor, chop up the concert into individual songs, and then record those song files to CD with no gaps between them, but that sounds like a lot more work than what I'm looking to do.
Any ideas?

No I don't think you can drop track markers...but you can of course manually break the large files up into smaller files.
Nero does have a really cool wave editor for no reason at all. It's got some really cool features!

Oh wait, it actually looks like you might be able to...it's not like dropping markers in wavelab, but it looks like you can do it!

I probably overlooked it but ...
Slack,
Are you sure about that capability being in there? I didn't see it on Ahead's web site and I downloaded a version of Nero last night but didn't see it there either.
I see they have a built-in WAV editor so, yeah, I could always record a whole concert and then manually chop it up in the editor. But that means a) recording a HUGE single WAV first and then doing some extra work.
Maybe I'll go check out Wavelab too while I'm at it.

Ehhh, then again maybe not
YIKES!!!
For $450-$500 Wavelab is out of the question.

ive had good luck with sonic foundry's cd burning software. Its aimed more at both pro studios and project studios with its many features and control over the final burning process.

track markers
If you have recording/editing program, you could just record each song as a seperate .wav file, and there would be no problem here. I use Goldwave, and it is free at www.goldwave.com
Hope this helps

I don't have Nero (I use CD architect), but I helped a friend figure this out last week. You can insert track markers in Nero. Forgive me if I don't remember the particulars, but you insert the wave file into the CD project. Then you double click the file name and it opens a dialogue box. Although I don't remember the rest, you should be able to find it from there. I am positive you can do it because we did it!

Yep, MONTE's got it. I didn't see that either until this thread prompted me to dig around a bit.

Cool!
Thanks guys. Based on the demo I downloaded and what you all told me I think I'm going Nero.

NERO F***ING ROCKS!!!!
I bought Nero and was able to do exactly what I wanted to do.
The only problem I noticed is that there's a somewhat audible click between the tracks. There's not really a break in the sound, just that short click. I'll have to see if there's someway to make it completely invisible, but that's just me being picky.
I also messed around with the WAV editor and that looks pretty cool too. It might save me from having to find another tool to load on the PC.
Thanks for your help everybody.
