Creating Audio CDs

Acoustica allows you to create audio CDs containing your edited recordings.

The first step towards your own CD is to create a CD-Project using one of the below options:

  • Selecting File > New > CD Project… or by clicking the New button in the main toolbar and select CD Project… from the drop-down list.

  • Selecting New CD Project from the Launch page. For more information see Launch Page

The CD Project contains a list of the audio tracks to be written on the CD. At the bottom you can also specify a media catalog number (MCN) and see the current fill status in percent:
