First you have to "rip" the song from the CD CDA file. Then convert that file to an MP3 format. Some rippers do that in one step. There are a good many free tools that will do that for you that can be downloaded from the internet. Just look for a ripper program. They are both small, easy to use., and many of them are free. You might try putting CD Ripper in your Google search to find them. Or even CDA to MP3 converter may work. Here are a few of them.

Just Google CDA to MP3 and you will find tons of them. Once converted simply go to your BandMix page and upload them.
