Not sure what exactly is available in the linux camp. I think the default gap between tracks on audio CDs is 2 secs. But I know you can get around this. I have used a free Windows tool, exactaudiocopy, to enable to take a standard Vinyl LP and record the 2 sides. I can put it on a CD and mark the tracks without having to break it into separate files. There is no silence between tracks (apart from the standard LP gap, but you still here pop and glitches as the track counter ticks over).
So I guess you mix your "tracks" with cross-fades, using something like sweep or audacity, etc. You then need to find a Linux CD tool that can mark tracks without inserting the gap.

Not really, but keep in mind if you cross-fade your tracks, you'll end up with a single track for the entire CD. That's why they separate the tracks in the first place :) I don't know of any utility that will enable you to write out a table of contents (TOC) for a CD with cross-faded tracks. Some early classical recordings I have (late 80's) used CD indexing to identify the different movements within a piece (track 2, index 3 might be Symphony #123, allegro for instance). Indexing kinda died not long after that and I've never seen it since. --James -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
