Audio CD tips
When recording music files, it is important to note that:
As you add music files in the recording session, the software calculates and displays
the amount of recording time available to record additional music files. If you try to
record more than a standard CD can hold, a message displays warning you that all
the tracks may not fit on your disc.
If your recording fails, manually select a slower recording speed, if available, each
time you make a recording. Refer to the Help menu in your selected software program
for more information about selecting a slower recording speed.
Before you begin creating discs
Save all work and close all open programs.
Turn off your screen saver.
Creating audio CDs
This section provides instructions for burning an audio CD that can be played in most
home and car CD players. For instructions on creating a compressed, jukebox CD, see

discs play only in some stereos, DVD players, and computers.

Programs , Roxio , and then click Creator .
3 Click the Audio tab.

When the process is complete, you are prompted to create a disc label. For
more information on creating a disc label, refer to “Making a disc label using
LightScribe,” or “Making a paper disc label.”
