Setting Offsets
You can change the position of start point, end point, and index markers globally by
setting an offset. The unit of value for offsets is one CDDA frame (1/75th of a second).
When you set an offset, the markers are moved immediately before the project is
burned to a CD, then moved back to their original positions after the CD is burned.
The purpose of setting offsets is to compensate for inaccurate timing in some CD
players, particularly older players.
The Disc Options window includes offset fields for the first start point, other start
points, stop points, and index points, allowing you to offset any or all of these markers.
The first start point is a special case, because the Red Book standard stipulates that there
must be a two- to three-second pause before the first track begins. Typing a value greater
than 0 (zero) in the First Start Point field, WaveBurner Pro inserts a corresponding period
of silence before the first track, and every track is shifted by the amount of time required
to maintain the period of silence. The overall length of the CD is increased by the number
of CDDA frames required to maintain the initial period of silence.
To set offsets:
1 Choose Disc > Disc Options, then click the General tab.
2 Type the offsets you want to set in the First Start Point, Other Start Points, End Points,
and Indexes fields. (in CDDA frames)
3 When you are finished, click OK.
Saving Mastering Notes

session, the client, the plug-ins and dithering used, and information about each track.
• Session Info includes the Session ID, date and time, company, studio, engineer,
source media, bit depth and sample rate, and comments.
• Client Info includes the disc title, client, artist, producer, copyright, and comments.
• Processing Info includes the dithering method and effect plug-ins used.
• CD Track Info includes the start time, track name, track length, track stop, track pause,
copy prohibit, pre-emphasis, ISRC code, track comment, and index points for each track.
