How to Burn a CD from Memory
Extremely high-quality CDs can be made when burned from re-read tracks on the
Memory.
To select tracks to be burned to CD:
• Double click ‘Burn CD from Memory’ (flaming CD graphic). The CD burner
panel will appear.
• Click ‘Add’ on the right side of the panel, and the tracks will appear.
• Click each track once, followed by ‘Add’ once, and the track will be added to
your burn list.
Each track and its length will be displayed on the panel. Below the panel is a
“duration on CD” graphic, which indicates how much time will be occupied and
how much time will remain on the CD, if and when the tracks are burned.
As these tracks are stored on Memory, you may remove the CD and extract tracks
from a new CD to create your own compilation.
To enable ‘Normalize’:
• Check the ‘Normalize’ box.
Normalizing can be very useful if the tracks are from disparate sources with large
volume level variations. In most cases, it is unnecessary. While it is program-
dependent, too much Normalizing can compress, so some trial and error may be
needed to prevent any compression of dynamics.
• When finished selecting, click ‘Finish’.
• Click ‘Next’ to reveal the “Write Options” panel. The optimal parameters are
selected automatically.
• Click ‘Write CD’ to burn your CD from Memory.
As an option, you may manually select the recording speed. Just choose from 25
speeds displayed in the pull-down menu under “Recording Speed”. Choosing a
recording speed will optimize it for a given blank – all blanks will have the lowest
jitter at a specific speed. This speed can only be determined through trial and error.
• Always close the CD burner by touching the “X” in the upper right corner.
