Hey mr Soul, thanks a lot for the advice. You've almost saved my life! ...I downloaded CD wave straight away and it's just about perfect: easy to use, and does exactly what I need it to! ...One major problem though, although I'm sure it's easily resolved. I created a WAV file by recording through the line out. I've worked out how to cut into tracks, which is great, but while my initial file is only 78 minutes long - it takes up 1.15 GB on my hard drive!!! I'm guessing I recorded on too high a quality... can I sort that now, or do I have to re-record this thing over again? Basically I want to split my recording onto two normal, standard audio CDs which can be read on the most basic CD player... It has to be possible, even for me... ;-) foreverly grateful, Robin
