So, now you have a whole bunch of songs, hogging a good chunk of your hard drive, and your ready to make a cd. We hope. Well, maybe.

Brian, I can't stress enough that you will need time to play around with your wav editor. You really need to know what you are doing with that before you come to this step. Your wav editor will be primarily responsible for what your cd's sound like. Once you have a good working knowledge of the editor, you can really improve the original sound of your songs. Like I said in my first msg, you can take that wav file of a song, make it louder, make it softer, up or lower bass, mid and/or treble. You could make it sound like it was coming through a pipe, or just simply use it to remove some of the pop and hiss sounds that come from a tape or record.

But we are here. Once your files are the best they are going to be, you will use your burner software, (there are many) to take those wav files (remember where they are?) and have the software convert them to .cda and put them on your cd. You should have instructions for your software, or a tutorial that came with it.

Remember, Cd's have a limit. 650 megs or 74 minutes. Your burner software shouldn't let you go over this, but be cautious anyways. So using the cd creater software, you will tell it to create a Audio CD, select the files you want, and tell it to burn it.

Like the wav editor, you will need some time to learn it. But don't make CD's until you are really ready. No need wasting CD's at a buck or two a pop just to learn how to make one.
