Note: If you check the Multiple Select option, you’ll be
able to select multiple WAVE files and insert them in a
single operation.
When you have finished adding files to the list, press the
Exit button to close the dialog box.
Notice that the WAVE files have been added to the track
list.
You can also use the Play button to play any 44.1kHz or
48kHz WAVE file.
To add other WAVE files to the track list, press the Insert
button once again.
If you want to add another track, select the WAVE file that
follows the track you want to add. If you want to add the
track to the end of the track list, select “====End====.”
Then press the Insert button.
To delete a WAVE file from the track list, select the WAVE
file that you want to delete, and press the Cut button.
Subsequent tracks will be moved forward in the list.
Note: For more details on other editing operations, please
see “1–1c: Drive Select, Command buttons” on page 836 of
the Parameter Guide, and “Swap Track” on page 867 of the
Parameter Guide.
4. Insert a blank CD-R or CD-RW disk into the drive.
In the Make Audio CD page, use Drive Select to select the
external USB CD-R/RW drive. The CD-R/RW drive is
shown as “CDD: Blank Disc.”
An audio CD cannot be created on a disc that contains
data other than audio (e.g., files). In this case, it will not
be possible to select the menu commands Write to CD or
Finalize Audio CD.
Note: Since some audio CD players are unable to play back
CD-RW media, we recommend that you use CD-R media for
audio CDs.
5. Select the menu command Write to CD to open the
dialog box, and specify how the CD will be written.
Use Speed to set the writing speed. This will indicate the
speeds supported by the CD-R/RW drive you are using. In
this example, set the Speed to the lowest value available
(such as 1x).
In some cases, faster speeds may cause write errors.
Use Mode to specify the writing method.
Note: Depending on the drive you are using, it may not be
possible to write at the specified speed. We recommend that
the first time you write, you select Test to perform a writing
test in order to determine the speed capabilities of your
drive. Test will not write data to the CD-R/R
W
media, but
will perform all other processing just as when data is
actually written. If an error occurs, the display will show the
message “Error in writing to medium.”
Press the OK button to execute the writing test.
After verifying that data can be written correctly at the
specified speed, select Write.
Execute finalize too specifies whether Finalization will be
executed after the audio tracks have been written to the CD-
R/RW media. If finalization has been executed, the disc can
be played back on a CD player, but it will no longer be
possible to add more tracks.
Note: If you only want to execute finalization, use the
Finalize Audio CD command.
6. When you are ready to write to the CD-R/RW media,
or to execute a writing test, press the OK button. To
cancel without executing, press the Cancel button.
When you press the OK button, the “Obey Copyright
Rules” dialog box will appear.
7. Carefully read “COPYRIGHT WARNING” on page 3
of the Quick Start Guide, and if you consent to the
terms, press the OK button to begin burning the CD.
If you do not consent to the terms, press the Cancel
button to cancel the operation.
In order to avoid errors, do not subject the drive to
physical shock or vibration while CD-R/RW media is
being written.
Saving Track Lists
The track list will be lost when the power is turned off. If
you want to keep this data, you must save it.
1. In the Save page, select the directory in which you
want to save the track list.
2. Select the page menu command “Save Audio CD
Track List” to open the dialog box.
3. Press the OK button to save the data, or press the
Cancel button to cancel without saving.
