About creating a music CD
When recording music files, it is important to
note that:
■
To play your music CD in a home or car
stereo, it needs to be recorded as a music CD
in CD Audio (CDA) format, not as a data CD.
■
You must record all music files in one
recording session because RecordNow!
closes the CD after recording is complete.
Music files can be recorded repeatedly onto a
rewritable (CD-RW) disc, but all previously
recorded music files must be erased first.
■
As you add music files in the recording
session, RecordNow! calculates and displays
the amount of recording time available to
record additional music files.
■
You can’t record song titles unless you make
an exact copy of a music CD in your
collection.
■
If you try to record more than a standard CD
can hold, RecordNow! displays a message
warning you that all the tracks may not fit on
your disc.
Storing Files on a DVD or CD
Unlike music CDs, data DVDs and CDs can be
recorded in multiple sessions:
1
Click
Start
, choose
All Programs
,
CD
(DVD) Recorder
,
RecordNow!
, and then
click
RecordNow!
again.
2
Select the
Data Projects
tab.
3
Insert a blank or appendable
CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R,
DVD+RW, or double-layer
DVD+R (select models) disc into your drive,
and then click
Data Disc
.
■
If the disc is blank, follow the onscreen
instructions.
Or
■
If the disc is full, insert a blank or another
appendable disc.
Or
■
If you are adding files to a disc, follow the
onscreen instructions.
4
To name your disc, select
Volume Label
,
and then type a name over it. RecordNow!
assigns a name based on the recording date if
you don’t type a name.

An appendable disc
can have additional
files added to it, if
there is disc space
available. Recorded
audio CDs are closed-
session discs that are
not appendable.
