Audio CD Mastering


This window is for compiling audio cds. Add the media files you want on your cd and press "Compile" to decode the tracks and load the project into the main window ready for writing.

To add tracks with a standard two second gap select the "2 Sec Gap" checkbox. Clearing this checkbox will add tracks with no pause although the pause for each track can be changed in the Track Properties window.

CD-Text can be downloaded from freedb by pressing the "Freedb..." button, converted from filenames or manually entered in the Track Properties window.


Other options are available by right clicking the track list:


Save to Tracklist:
Save current tracklist to an m3u playlist file. This file can then be used in a third party audio player or imported back into burnatonce at a later date

Split Current Track:
Split a large track into several smaller parts using information from freedb.

Enable CD-Text:
Enables writing of CD-Text information to the toc file only. The writer device must also support CD-Text and have it enabled in the main settings

CD-Text from Filename:
Determine CD-Text information by filtering the track's filename

All to Current Pause:
Set pause/pregap of all tracks to same length as currently selected track

Apply WaveGain
Use the wavegain algorithm to equalise the perceived loudness of all tracks - useful for making compilations etc.

Change Temp Folder:
Change folder burnatonce uses to store tempory files such as decoded media files and the toc file

Automatic Write:
After disc is compiled load project into main window and attempt to write without user interaction

Track Properties:
Open the Track Properties window where pause length, mark in/out points and CD-Text can be viewed/edited
