creating a music cd
RecordNow! creates closed session music CDs, which means you must record all
music files on one CD in one recording session. Music files can be recorded
repeatedly on a rewriteable CD-RW disc, but all previously recorded files must
be erased first. CD-R discs cannot be erased. See “getting started with
recordnow!” on page 63.
NOTE: CD-R discs play in most home and car stereos. CD-RW discs play only in
some stereos.
To record a CD-R or CD-RW disc:
1 Open RecordNow!, and if necessary erase the CD-RW disc; see “getting
started with recordnow!” on page 63.
2 Click the Audio Projects tab at the top of the RecordNow! window.
