Burning the CD
After setting preferences, disc options, and previewing transitions, you are ready to burn
the project to a CD.
To burn a project to a CD
1 Choose Disc > Burn, click the toolbar Burn button, or press Command-B.
The Burn dialog appears, with the name of the CD burner listed in the dialog. Further
information on support for CD-Text, ISRC and Indexes is also shown. If no blank CD-R is
in the tray of the CD burner, the Burn dialog prompts you to insert a blank CD-R.
2 Insert a blank CD-R in the CD burner tray, if you have not already done so.
3 Set the Number of Copies value and choose a Write Speed from the pop-up menu.
4 Enable the Text Only checkbox to limit the burn to text information. Enable the Underrun
Protection checkbox to ensure that your CD burner buffer is activated.
5 Enable the Write As Session checkbox if you want to create (or add to) a multi-session
disc. Discs written in this way are not “closed.”
Note: Although WaveBurner supports burning to a CD-R disc that contains multiple CDDA
sessions, this does not comply with the Red Book standard. It is a convenience feature
that allows you to make compilations from different sessions. If you want to create a fully
compliant Red Book CD, use a blank CD-R and disable the Write As Session checkbox.
6 Click the Burn button to start the burning process.
The Burn dialog displays the progress of the burn process. When the burn process is
complete, the CD is ejected.
Bouncing or Exporting Your Project
You can bounce or export your project at any time. This calculates the complete project
offline, and renders it to a single audio file. The bounce file is actually a Mac OS X package
containing one continuous audio file, the document data, and mastering info.
Exporting a project saves the project file (WB3) and the source audio files. This makes it
a perfect backup solution.
Saving a DDP (Disc Description Protocol) Image creates a folder that contains several files.
The entire image folder can be delivered to a mixing or mastering facility that works with
this format.
To bounce, export, or save a project to a DDP image
Do one of the following:
µ
Choose File > Bounce Project. Specify the folder location and project name.
µ
Choose File > Export Project. Specify the folder location and project name.
