Cue sheet question

If I use a cue sheet on an mp3 that is longer than 80 minutes and use the Nero Image Recorder to save it as an image on my hard drive, will it work? And then, if that works, will I be able to mount that image on a virtual drive and import it to my iTunes library?

Most specifically, what I want to do is use a cue sheet on the Danny Howells 2007 EM (2 hours long) and save it as an image. Then, mount that image using a virtual drive, which iTunes recognizes as an audio CD and then imports the separate tracks to my library which I then transfer to my iPod. I've done this hundreds of times with other sets, but they all have been shorter than 80 minutes. I don't know if this will work on a longer set.

Thanks!

why don't you try it out?

i'm sure there are programs that split mp3s based on cue files, so you don't have to use such complicated methods (if that is what you want to do with your live sets, split them into individual tracks).

That's definately the long winded way of doing it!

Write your cue file and use either one of these programs to split the file;

Mac

PC

This will simply split the file into tracks in the folder where the cue file/set are located (while keeping the original intact, of course).

Thanks guys, one more question though before downloading cue splitter...Will splitting tracks this way keep them gapless? I've tried other programs to split mp3s and it always leave a small gap between tracks when playing them together.

Thanks!
