If this is in the wrong section I am so sorry!

I'm sure you've seen the videos(some may have done it themselves)Where the couples break down during the first dance and have like a bunch of different songs but its only parts of songs.....How would you go about making a CD like that? I would like to do it myself but I don't know if thats possible!

I would assume most of these are mixed by a DJ or someone that has music mixing/editing software. I wouldn't know how to begin to go about this. Maybe someone else does.

Yes, it's usually done with DJ equipment, but there is a way you can do it yourself.

Do you have Nero for burning CDs? If so, that's the easiest way to do it.

1. Go to "Make Audio CD"
2. Add all the songs you want to have in your mix
3. Highlight each song one at a time by clicking on it once. When you have a song highlighted, you'll notice a button to the right that says "Properties". Click on that.
4. From there you can cut out parts of the song. Then when you have only the parts you want in the song for your mix, make sure to put a check mark in the box "no pause between songs".

This should make your mix goes smoothly. If you have any questions, feel free to email me any time! Or if my instructions don't make sense! :)

Good luck!
