Preface
An Introduction to WaveBurner
WaveBurner is an application that lets you assemble, master,
and burn audio CDs using a SuperDrive or CD burner
supported by Mac OS X.
Audio CDs created with WaveBurner can be played back on any audio CD player, and
can be used as pre-masters—for mass production.
WaveBurner supports all Red Book options for CD audio data storage. You can add up
to the maximum 99 tracks and 99 subindexes per track allowable by the Red Book
standard, include ISRC codes for each track, set copy prevention and pre-emphasis flags
for each track, and add UPC/EAN codes for the CD. WaveBurner also supports the CD
TEXT standard, allowing you to add text information that can be read by any CD TEXT-
compatible player.
You create a CD by adding audio files to a WaveBurner project. The audio files appear
as regions in the project window, where you can edit and arrange them graphically or
numerically. You can add effects to both individual regions and the overall project—
using the included effects, or Audio Unit plug-ins installed on your computer. You can
edit pauses between tracks and add fade-ins, fade-outs, and crossfades. When your
project is complete, you can burn the project to a CD.
