Operating the CD Player/Recorder Recording an audio CD In addition to playing CDs from your computer's CD-ROM drive, you can record and save them as music files on your computer's hard drive. When you insert a CD into your computer's CD-ROM drive, the Wave/PC™ software prepares itself to record all tracks on the CD. It indicates this by placing a check mark next to each track title in the music finder window (see the Record column in Figure 16). Figure 16 Example of the application window when recording a CD Points to track currently being recorded CD play status Recording status Points to track currently playing Checks/unchecks all checkboxes Start/stops recording Before you start recording Make sure the tracks you want to record have a check mark next to the track. If there are some tracks you do not want to record, click the checkbox beside the track to clear the check mark. Starting the recording process Note: A CD is recorded as a background operation.
