I know it's been covered a billion times but i cant be
arsed searching.

I have a mac, and i have made a mix set, but i want to burn
it to CD, divided into seperate songs, but obviously still
mixed.

split mix into separate files using audacity or similar
audioeditor

burn in itunes or roxio toast (remember to set the gap to 0
secs - first track need to have 2 sec pregap though)

in itunes set your burning options to 0 sec gap, and make
sure you're burning wavs not mp3s

after you have split the file into pieces DO NOT SAVE IT AS
MP3 DATA!! save them as wavs. otherwise you will have an
additional gap.

Is there some sort of burn program for a Mac which can
handle cue sheets? If so.. then you don't have to split it.
Just indicate where a song has to start in the cuesheet and
it'll be burned without caps. If the burner supports
textburing it'll burn the song info etc as well.

I'm sure all CD burning software have something in options
or preferences where you can have it leave "no gaps between
songs" or "no pause between tracks" or something. Also, you
could open them in Cool Edit or something and trim down the
pause.

I've had surprisingly good results using the iTunes method,
regardless of the fact that I dislike the program for all
other purposes..

yeah, as said before, the biggest issue is not to burn mp3's
because mp3s will round the track length up to the nearest
second (i think, maybe its some other unit).

so yeah, save as wav's, then burn in pretty much any program
and you should be golden
