Hi
Daniel,
I think most main stream brands should work well. You don't
necessarily have to buy those formulated especially for music. Any old
data cd will work if you're creating from the computer..

Hi,
I just go to Walmart and buy memorex or max l or whatever name
brand is on sale. I buy them in a spindle of fifty, generally, though
sometimes a spindle of 100 is really cheap. I have found that so-called
music cd's are no better than straight write once read many type cd's,
You only need to buy those if you have a stand alone recorder. The extra
cost is for the RIA. It has nothing to do with quality.

While we are on that thread, how can you tell which is the correct side to
put the CD in to the drive so you know that you're recording. I am VERY new
at this too. Or is there a smooth side and a rough side on the CD?
Forgive me if this a dumb question but I'd like to save myself a little

You only
well Paul there are lines or some sort of raised lines on the side that is
suppose to be up. You don't want to be touching the smooth side because the
oil from your skin will dirty the recording side. So try to touch the smooth
side as little as possible with clean hands.

For most cd's, there is a slightly raised ring around the center hole
about an inch or less from the center. The side with that ridge goes
down.
In any case, one should be careful not to get fingerprints or to smudge
the surface of the disk.

generally the cd's will be on the side you want to record on. so when you
remove it from the spindle or package or whatever you buy them in, do not
turn them over to the other side or you'll have nothing but problems.
So, just place them in the drive on the side they're on. treat them as you
So you mean the ridge is on the recording side, and the label side is smooth
at that same point?

The business side of a CD is the side that is flush with the jewel
case. If you hold the CD in your hand by the edge then with the index
finger of the other hand you reach to the center of the disk and drag your
finger slowly towards the edge about an inch an a half or so from the center

Hi,
Usually, there is a feelable ring around the center hole on the
face down side. I say most times because every now and then I find a store
bought cd with no souge ridge. Never seen a cd rom without one,
though. Incidentally, writeable vidio discs have a ridge on both sides.
I have a live concert which is one long track. I want to place index markers
between each song but do not want an audible gap between each track. Is
there a program that will do this?
thank you

One of the best solutions is Gold Wave. You can break the file into wave
files with it, and it will adjust the breaks so that you don't get popping
and the like. Then a program like CDRWIN or Nero can put the whole thing
together for you with no gaps or pops.
