Brad, If you import many files, they import in separate tracks underneath each other in Audacity, so you would have to solo each track to work on each one, otherwise they would all play together. If preferred, select the second track, cut it, paste it to the end of the first track and remove the now empty second track and repeat as needed to make one long track. Then make the splits between the tracks using labels. If using labels, read this: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/help/faq?s=files&i=split . Then you would File > Export Multiple to export separate files based on tracks (if you kept the tracks underneath each other), or based on labels if you made one long track. For burning to audio CD for use in standalone CD players, export as 44100 Hz stereo 16-bit WAV files, not MP3 which will reduce the audio quality. Here is the FAQ: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/help/faq?s=files&i=burn-cd .
