Recorded live performance.

I recorded a live performance of our Youth Band. They plaed four songs. I'm trying to now master them from one long track into 4 seperate MP3's. I started by getting to mastering mode.

pressed Rec (set effects, etc...)
Pressed play on first song.
pressed stop then followed the steps to create an MP3

Next
Set my effect
fast forwarded to the next song.
Pressed Rec
Pressed Play listened until hit end of song.
pressed stop.
Mastered down to MP3.

I go back and listen the the MP3 of the second song, it is the first song I recorded.

what I'm I doing wrong here?

Might be easier to beak them up individually and then master separately
Personally I would perform these tasks by importing them to pc as wav files in a audio editor then break them up and master/covert them to pc
Audacity is free and with the Lame mp3 encoder you can do it all from Audacity-quick-cheap
Hope this helps

I agree. I've learned to set my levels and record the whole performance...then go back and split them into individual tracks using track splitting software of some type on your PC. I tried recording performances via New Song creation between songs, but you gotta be quick, and, inevitably will eventually screw up and not set the input attenuation, or forget to hit the record button, and get a lot of nothing. Record it and split 'em up later.

OUR Youth Band is group of musical teens that attend TEEN night meetings sponsored by our church.  They have the chance to play once a month during our worship service.  They are a very driven band and like to perform their music on the heavy overdriven side as well!!

what i like to do is to separate out each individual song using the COPY Track function. I then paste it either onto a seperate track or a virtual track. Then i master each of those.
