Tutorial 9 – Exporting, CD burning and sharing
If you would like to burn an audio CD of your music
1. Click File > Export > Audio to open the Export Audio dialog.
2. In the Channel Format list, select Stereo.
3. In the Sample Rate list, select 44100.
4. In the Bit-Depth list, select 16.
5. Enter a name for you mix in the File name box.
6. In the File type list, select Wave.
7. Specify where you want to save the file. Make note of this location, because you will need to use
it later.
8. Click Export.
A progress bar appears across the bottom of SONAR’s screen while a CD quality audio file is
exported. When the progress bar disappears, SONAR has finished exporting your project.
Now we need to burn our mix to a CD. SONAR features a powerful built-in CD burning application
that can do this for us. Let’s open Audio Creator LE and briefly explore its features and how to use it.
See:
“Burning an audio CD” on page 166
“Cakewalk Publisher” on page 168
Bit-Depth Allows you to set the bit-depth of your export. 16-bit is used for CD quality
and 24-bit is often used for DVD quality audio.
Add to Cakewalk Publisher Select this option to send your file to Cakewalk Publisher, which is used to
put your music on the Internet.
