How to Make a Music CD

3.Insert the source CD, which contains the songs you want to record, into your CD-RW drive.

NOTE: You can record directly from a CD-ROM drive only if it supports digital audio extraction. See “Recording from a CD-ROM Drive” in the Easy-CD Audio Online Help.

4.In the Explorer section of the window, select the drive where the source CD is located to view the list of songs on the CD.

5.Drag the songs that you want to record from Explorer to the Audio CD Layout window.

To change the name of a song, see “Renaming Songs in Your CD Layout” on page 6-8.

6.Repeat steps 3-5 for each existing music CD from which you want to record songs.

7.Select Create CD from the File menu when you have placed all of the songs that you want to record into the Audio CD Layout window.

The CD Creation Setup box appears.

8.Make changes, if any, to the CD Creation Setup settings (see “CD Creation Setup Settings” in the Easy-CD Audio Online Help for descriptions) and click OK.

Easy-CD Audio begins recording your CD layout to a blank CD. Insert a blank CD when prompted. A final message box notifies you when the recording is complete.

NOTE: To make a sleeve that lists the artist, CD title, and songs, see ”Chapter

7:Making Inserts and Labels”.
