Playing Back Audio CDs

Let’s now listen to the audio CD we have just created using the BR-900CD’s CD-R/RW drive. In addition to CD-R discs, this drive can be used to play back CD-RW discs that cannot be played on standard CD players. Naturally, you will also be able to listen to commercially produced audio CDs on this drive, and it can even play back audio CDs created using the BR-900CD that have not yet been finalized.

If you are working with an audio CD created with the BR- 900CD, you can play back and check the sounds on the CD even before finalizing it. Please note, however, that depending on the type of disc used and the data on it, songs may not play back properly all the way to the end. If you want to ensure that songs play back correctly, finalize (p. 143) the disc.

Songs recorded on an audio CD are often referred to as “tracks.” Be careful to avoid confusing these tracks with the BR-900CD’s audio tracks.
