Operating the CD Player/Recorder
Playing an audio CD
The Wave/PC
™
interactive audio system can play any audio CD. Whenever you insert a CD
into your computer’s CD-ROM drive, the Wave/PC system automatically selects the CD
player (Figure 14) and begins playing the CD.
When the Wave/PC system plays a CD for the first time, and you have an Internet connection,
the application automatically links your computer to a free Internet database service, called
CDDB, and downloads CD track information. CDDB is a large on-line repository that provides
artist, title, track, credit, and other information about the CDs you play. For more information
about CDDB, see “Using CDDB” on page 23.
Note:
The check marks appearing in the check column of the music finder window are used
to select tracks you want to record. To record your CD, see “Recording an audio CD” on
page 22.
