System information

Item Description
End Displays the timeline position of the end of the track.
Length Displays the length of the track (including the two-second pause
between tracks).
Name Enter a name that will be used to identify the track in the timeline.
Prot Select the check box to add a flag to the Q subcode to prevent digital
copying of your CD.
In order to use copy protection, the CD player must support the copy-
protection flag.
Emph Select the check box to add a pre-emphasis flag to the Q subcode.
Pre-emphasis is a simple noise-reduction process that is implemented
by a CD player. Emphasis involves boosting high frequencies during
CD writing and cutting those frequencies during playback. The
emphasis process reduces high-frequency noise without disrupting
the natural frequency of the source material.
Vegas Pro does not impart the pre-emphasis boost on a track; it can
only set the flag. In order for pre-emphasis to occur, the CD recorder
and player must support the flag. Check your CD drive
documentation to determine whether your drive supports pre-
emphasis flags.
ISRC Enter the ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) that will be
used to identify your disc.
For more information about ISRC codes, see
