Many Tracks Import the file into Ardour, drag and drop onto a track. Create tracks for each song. Then for each track select "P" (playlist), and select the Playlist for the track where the region was originally drag'n dropped. Then edit the region to include only the part you want. Single Track Drag the region onto a track position the Edit head between songs and split the region at the Edit head. Move split regions to suit. I assume the live recording is one two channel track. If correct, you're not going to mix it but you should master it. They are not the same task. Use a session with a master bus, track output to master bus, master bus output to JAMin. Add JAMin return bus in Ardour. When a song is mastered to suit your interests, use region mode and from the end of the region select back to the beginning and then Export Selection.
