Basic Operations:Importing Audio CDs

MySoundStudio lets you import the sound data from audio CD in the CD-ROM drive (Some CD-ROM drive models do not support audio CD ripping). Once you import the sound from Audio CD, you can edit it in the same way you usually edit other digital sound data.

In this lesson, you will open the audio CD into the new multi-track window.

  1. Choose File - New.
    A new multi-track window opens.

  2. Insert any audio CD into the CD-ROM drive.
    If the audio starts playing automatically, exit the CD player.

  3. Choose File - Open.
    The Open dialog box appears.

  4. In the Look In dropdown list, select the drive the audio CD is inserted.
    All tracks stored on the audio CD are listed as the file names followed by .cda file extension.

  5. Select any file in the list (any track on the audio CD), and click Open or double-click the file.
    The message box appears to show the import progress. When the process completes, a new track is added and the track imported from the audio CD is displayed there.

  6. When the audio track is imported, play that track to hear the sound.


Whenever you use existing music (not limited to audio CDs) for any purpose other than personal appreciation, you must obtain the prior consent from the copyright owner.
