Splitting mixes and cue files

Curious, what does anyone use if at all, to split your mixes up into tracks so one could burn it to CD?

Searched around google, found some nice online ones, couldn’t really find an app though to build cue files. I’ve been manually building the text files via the all mighty copy/paste/edit method but its really getting annoying now.

Curious if anyone has found a tool to do this…Maybe I’ll have to build one if it doesn’t exist

You mean how to split mixes into tracks?

Yeah a pretty simple process but it will help lots of new peeps.

I know there is a programm for Mac that cuts the tracks according to a .cue-file, have to search for it/ask a friend about it again. However, you still need to build the .cue-files yourself.
I tried this once, but just got a FAIL out of it ;(

i’ve always used the cut button in traktor :[

Okay, with the help of my friend google and wikipedia, you should be able to get this working using:
a)
This piece of information on .cue-files
And b)
Either the cue-splitter found here or from what I just read, Max (recommended by Ean once) is able to do this as well.

EDIT: I might write up a detailed version tonight when I’m back home. I think the info on these link are pretty good already though.
