This dialog starts the CD writing process. MAGIX music editor 2
contains high-grade CD creation routines that are constantly updated. The software code is licensed from
Point Software & Systems.
If you want to find out which CD-R drives are supported, please read the file "CDR_Readme.txt" in the
installation folder or visit our web sites at http://support.magix.net

MAGIX music editor 2
creates a TOC (Table of Contents) file prior to starting the CD creation. The name of the current VIP is
used and the extension *.tcx is added to the file. The TOC file is located in the same folder as the current
VIP. It is therefore important to save the VIP to the hard disk prior to starting the burning process.

Burn "On The Fly":
Use this extremely powerful mode if you want to create the CD directly from within the VIP. All
necessary calculations are performed in real-time during the burning process. The following real-time
tasks are calculated during the process:
- Object effects, volume and panorama settings
- Fades and crossfades
- Mixing of tracks
- Mixer track effects
- Mixer section effects
- 32-bit Float to 16-bit conversion and dithering
To get a good idea whether your system is able to sustain the real-time processing needed for this
functionality, try this:
Play back the VIP sections that contain the largest number of tracks and/or where the most real-time
effects are used. Watch the DSP meter (bottom left-hand). Below are the expected performances at the
different DSP values:
- Below 25%: CD creation with up to 4x mode
- Below 50%: CD creation with up to 2x mode
- Below 90%: CD creation with up to 1x mode
- Above 90%: Real-time creation is not possible, use the second mode (Bouncing)
