Disk P1: Audio CD
1–1: Make Audio CD
Here you can use the internal CD-R/RW drive or a
USB-connected CD-R/RW drive to create an audio CD.
To create an audio CD, you will use WAVE files that
you resampled from the OASYS’s sequencer playback
etc. Use the Insert button and Cut button to arrange the
files in the audio CD track list, and use the “Write to
CD” page menu command to write them as an audio
CD.
An audio CD can be created from either 44.1 kHz or 48
kHz WAVE files. 48kHz files will be automatically
converted to 44.1kHz during the CD writing process.
Note: When the name of a WAVE file is highlighted,
you can play that file by pressing the Play button or the
SAMPLING START/STOP switch. This is a convenient
way to audition the sound.
What is Finalize?
In order for an audio CD to be playable on a
conventional CD player, or to be played on the OASYS
(Disk: Audio CD page, Sampling P5: Audio CD page),
the Finalize operation must be executed after all the
desired audio CD tracks have been written to the CD-
R/RW disc.
On the OASYS, the page menu command “Write to
CD” allows you to simply write the audio CD tracks
without finalizing the disc, and this means that other
audio CD tracks can be added to that CD-R/RW disc at
a later time.
No more audio CD tracks can be added to a disc once
that disc has been finalized, so be sure that all desired
audio CD tracks have been written before you finalize.
1–1a: Track, Total, Free
Track (Track Select) [01…99, --]
Specifies the track number that will be displayed at the
top of the audio CD track list.
If unfinalized media is inserted, this field will indicate
the number that follows the last track number on that
media. For example if data up to “Track (Track Select)”
05 has already been written, this will indicate 06 and
following (up to 99).
If “WAVE file” ====End==== is at the top, this will
indicate --.
Up to 99 tracks can be registered using the Insert
button.
Total [00:00…]
Displays the total time of all WAVE files in the audio
CD track list.
If the “Total” time is greater than “Free,” writing to
CD-R/RW media will not be possible.
Free [00:00…, --:--]
Displays the time that remains on the media inserted
in the CD-R/RW drive selected by “Drive Select.”
If a CD-R/RW drive is not connected, or if it contains
no media, or if the inserted media has already been
finalized, this will display --:--.
