Pre-recording Audio Tracks to Wave Files

Pre-recording audio tracks to Wave files on your hard drive is a way to:

Minimize swapping CDs in and out of your drive if you want to make more than one copy

Add sound effects to customize the song (use a third-party sound editor)

Improve the sound quality if your CD recording system is less than optimal
