Creating an Audio CD
Using the DP-03, you can create audio CDs that can be
played back by ordinary CD players by writing the stereo
master tracks created for songs (see “Creating a stereo
master track” on page 54) to CD-R and CD-RW discs.
Use the following two methods to create a CD.
Disc At Once (DAO)
Use this method to write multiple stereo master tracks
at one time. Since this method automatically finalizes
the disc (see “Finalizing a CD” on page 74), making it
playable by an ordinary CD player, you will be able to
use the completed disc with other CD players right away.
However, after DAO completes, you will not be able to
add any more tracks to the disc that was automatically
finalized.
Track At Once (TAO)
Use this method to write a single stereo master track at a
time to a CD.
Use this way when you want to write tracks to a CD at
different times. TAO does not automatically finalize a CD,
and unfinalized CDs cannot be played back in ordinary CD
players. (Playback in the DP-03 is possible.) After you have
written all the stereo masters to a disc using TAO, finalize
the disc (see “Finalizing a CD” on page 74). You cannot add
more tracks to a CD that has been finalized.
Using Disc At Once
Use Disc At Once when you have selected multiple songs.
Using Disc At Once, you can set the order of multiple
songs as you like. Moreover, you can set the time and add
silent gaps between songs.
NOTE
When using Disc At Once, you can also make multiple
discs with the same contents. When doing so, use
identical discs (same manufacturer, type and capacity).
1 In MULTITRACK mode, press the CD button to open
the
CD
screen.
2 Put a blank CD-R/CD-RW or a CD-RW that you want
to erase into the disc tray.
