I cannot find a burning app for OS X that will let me burn my WAV/Cuesheet files. Any suggestions on software?
Thanks,

If you can get cdrdao installed on your system then that's the only way, none of the GUI's...MMB, Firestarter FX etc...will work.
The best way to cope with an audio/cue combo is to split the file with shntool or xACT. You have to remove all the lines in the cue before the one that begins "FILE", save the changes and then split.
It *is* possible to burn such a combo with Toast but it's a rather kludgy procedure. Change the extension from .wav to .bin and edit the cue (pre-FILE lines are no problem here) so the relevant line reads
You can now go to Toast's Copy tab, select Bin/Cue files from the option drawer and burn.
If the CD being copied had a pregap, you will end up with a copy, though it will be one sector longer than the original. If there was no pregap there will be a click comparable to a sector boundary error at the beginning of the CD so you need to engineer one by inserting a line thus:
to:
Total kludge but you will preserve any INDEX 00 values, whose loss is the only downside of simply splitting the WAV instead.

Well, aside from being a bit kludge, that worked well. On the subject of cdrdao however, which I attempted to use first, I got this error when trying to create a toc with the cue2toc command:
CODE
cue2toc:/Volumes/Samus/Torrents/Eliane Elias - Cross Currents/Eliane Elias - Cross Currents.cue:4: Unsupported file type
Any ideas? And any suggestions on how to burn multiple FLAC/WAV files using a cuesheet?
