An Introduction to Recording Your Own CD

Burning a CD

Once you’ve mastered your mix, you’ll burn it onto a CD. It’s as easy as

turning on your CD burner and selecting the mastering tracks you want to

burn.

Burning a Standard CD

A professional-quality CD burner—such as those

found in various Roland/BOSS studio workstations—

lets you make a CD that can be played on any audio

CD player. This CD will also contain everything a

mass duplicator would need to produce as many copies

of the CD as you want.

Burning a CD a Song at a Time

Many CD burners also allow you to burn one song at a time. This is handy

for a couple of reasons.

If you’re working on an album of songs, you can build up the album song-by-

song. Mix one song, and burn a CD. When you mix the next song, you can

add it the same CD, and so on.

You can also create a CD with different versions of the

same song, allowing you to compare them and pick the

best version.

A CD you compile a song at a time may be playable only on your CD burner

until you ﬁnish adding songs and “ﬁnalize” the CD. Finalizing makes the

CD playable anywhere.
