To begin with, I have EMC V6 and have been using Roxio products for a long time.  I am familiar with basic CD burning, and have created hundreds of CD's in the last few years.  I am a Grateful Dead fan, and I burn live concerts primarily, and the reason I purchased RecordNow V. 9 is so that I could burn audio CD's directly fom FLAC files without first converting them to WAV.

I am having a few problems:

Track Order
When I add songs to my music project, the order does not come in right.  All of the songs in a concert are named in numerical order (gd80-06-21d1t01, gd80-06-21-d1t02, etc.) so the file names are good.  When I use the Add Music button, it always places the last song first.  If I drag and drop, the order is scrambled.  I need the songs to come in the order the files are named.

Gaps
I am getting a small gap (1/2 second) between tracks.  I am using DAO closed (although it is under Data options.)  I don't see any other options to control this.  The Grateful Dead can play continuously for an hour without stopping, but play 6 songs.  We can't have gaps.

Static
I am getting static interference after the first couple of songs.  The static gets worse as the CD plays.  I have a philips internal CD burner, and it worked fine with EMC V6 and everything else.  I have slowed the burn speed to 24x and raised the recording memory cache.  Not much else to do here, and I won't go out and buy a new external burner just to test it out.

The only reason I purchased this software is so I can burn audio CD's from FLAC files, and for such a singlular reason I didn't think I should get the full blown EMC v10 which does everything under the sun.  

What do you think??????
