I found that I could use the cassette headphone jack as my output and run RCA plugs to the recorders Line-In inputs in the back.
As you said the recorder has trouble seperating tracks.
So I take my CD over to my computer and run a program called Audio Cleaning Lab. It's made by a company called Magix. It's on the web www.magix.com.
It allows me to seperate tracks, boost the sound, dehiss, and de-click the recordings (if scratched), and cut and paste songs.
I bought it at Best Buy for 40 Bucks. Then it allows my to burn it back on a cd or convert it to an MP3 file.
I usually make it an MP3 file and store it on the computer.
With NERO I convert it into a data file and store it on a CD.
You can get up to 200 songs on a CD this way. And anytime you want that song you can bring the CD back and with NERO drag and drop any songs from the CD to make an Audio CD.
I'll second that recommendation of Audio Cleaning Lab. I really like it for making the recording off the line input on my Soundblaster Live 5.1 card, and removing noise, hiss, clicks, and suchlike from cassettes and LPs. I don't like it as much for actually burning the CD, though. I usually export the cleaned up audio, and burn the CD with Nero 5.5.
