Writing an Audio Montage to an Audio CD

Prerequisite

Set up your audio montage and make your CD writing settings in the Global Preferences.

Note

On Mac, insert a medium in the drive after opening WaveLab Pro. Otherwise, the drive is under the control of the operating system and is not available for WaveLab Pro.

Procedure

  1. Optional: In the CD window, select Functions > Check CD Conformity to check that all settings conform to the Red Book standard.
  2. Insert an empty CD into your drive.
  3. In the CD window, select Functions > Write Audio CD or DDP.
  4. From the Device pop-up menu, select the writing device that you want to use.
  5. If you want to bypass the Master Section, activate Bypass Master Section.
  6. Select the writing speed from the Speed pop-up menu.
  7. Select the number of copies that you want to write.

    When you want to write more than one copy, it is recommended to activate Render to Temporary File before Writing.

  8. Optional: Activate one or several of the following options:
    • Activate Test Only, Do Not Write if you want to test if the writing operation would be successful.

    • Activate Render to Temporary File before Writing if your audio montage uses many plug-ins. This way, the audio data is sent to the CD writer fast enough.

    • Activate CD-Extra Compatible (New Session Possible) if you want the resulting audio CD to be compatible with the CD-Extra format.

    • Activate Eject after Completion if you want the disc to be automatically ejected after the writing operation.

  9. Click OK.

Result

The writing operation starts.
