Just a bit of background first to make sure both you and I are thinking
the same way. Normally to make a DAO CD (best thing for audio) You need
two files, The binary and the TOC or the CUE. The TOC for sure has all
that info in it (or should) so you should have it already somewhere.
However, If you can't find it, putting the CD in your computer CD/DVD
drive and doing:

cdrdao show-toc filename.toc

should get it for you.

This will only work assuming all the info you wish (Including ISRC and
text) were entered somewhere in Mixbus in the first place. Otherwise
only track start and length will be there.

Am I making sense?
