And you have recorded some music into this setup using some sort of software. What I need to know is: (a) what software did you use for recording? (b) is the music in multitrack form, or is it mixed down to a stereo .WAV or .AIFF file? If it's in multitrack form, you're stuck until you mix it down. If you just want to put it onto a CD, you should be able to do that once you've mixed it to a stereo WAV file. You do NOT need to convert the music to MP3 form to put it onto a CD. MP3 conversion will decrease the size of your WAV file, so you can get MORE songs onto a single CD, but you're losing quality. Also, a CD that contains MP3 files will NOT play in most CD players. Please give us a little more information about the music files that you're trying to burn to CD (i.e. respond to the questions above) and we'll try to get you going. The Black Knight always triumphs!
