Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial (or can anyone tell me) how to make CD track markers? (I think that's what they're called)
If you say do a mix and export it as one long wav file and want to insert the markers to tell the hi-fi when to change track number.
I have Sound Forge and Audition - and Cyberlink Power2Go for burning - on my studio pc, however can use Nero.

This is probably the long winded way of going about this, but I cut my wave file into the tracks (soundforge will do this), so I get a number of tracks. Then using Nero, i just make an audio CD and put each wave file in order onto the CD. Make sure you remove the 2 second gap setting in Nero otherwise you'll get the 2 second pause between tracks during your mix (check properties on each track).
Hope that helps.

NO, splitting the wav into the tracks before burning will cause a SLIGHT delay between tracks even after removing the 2 second thing in Nero. Your best bet is making a cue file for your set and leaving the original set as a full wave file. I've never made a cue sheet from a bare set and I dont know program names that make cue sheets, but they exist, try google.
Once you have your full wave file and your cue sheet, burn the cue in Nero. I've never done it, but it SHOULD burn the CD with gapless playback between tracks.
If less is more think about how much more more would be.

I use Samplitude 8: it allows you to automatically or manually set markers on a wav file (or multiple wav files in a mix/compilation). and burn the whole thing straight away. This works like a charm - you can even set the markers on sample level!

Yes, like PersianMafia said it's best to make cue sheets to burn tha audio file to cd with.

I also use this technique sometimes and there are no delay at all...
It's the mp3 format wich cause the delay you are talking about, if you make wav part, its simply perfect.
But I also think that making a cuesheet is an easier technique..
I think you can do it with notepad :
PERFORMER "ArtistName"
TITLE "AlbumName"
FILE "WavFile.wav" WAV
TRACK 01 AUDIO
TITLE "First Track Name"
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 02 AUDIO
TITLE "Second Track Name"
INDEX 01 07:32:20
save and replace .txt with .cue and burn it with nero!
