Seeking CD burning software for Mac desktop with crossfade and volume normalization

I just bought a Mac desktop to replace my older model. I still like to burn audio CDs, but my Tahoe'd Mac doesn't support Toast Titanium. is there any software out there that will allow me to burn music and allow me to cross fade, and normalize the volume?

True, the OP might have to settle for two out of three using the Music App.


Music does have an adjustable Crossfade option for Playback. Problem is, that I do not have any blank CDs to see if that Crossfade carries over in the burn to CD process.

AFAIK, the Music app can normalize volumes (if the tick box is checked) but not do crossfade when burning CDs.

Thanks for the answer Den.thed! The results of my search for a method to accomplish what was a simple task years ago has narrowed considerably, eh? ( I'm Canadian...) Thanks for reaching out to me with a simple answer. In a way, the advancement of technology is like being caught up in some tidal wave. No way back or out. Take care.

You're welcome.
