Creating Your Own Audio CDs with ImageBurn
If you're looking to create your own audio CDs from music that you've created yourself, there's a free piece of software called ImageBurn that can help. ImageBurn is available for download at imageburn.com, and it's a great tool for anyone who wants to create their own audio CDs without having to pay for expensive software.
To get started with ImageBurn, simply download the software and install it on your computer. Once installed, open up ImageBurn and follow along with the instructions in this article to learn how to create your own audio CDs.
Creating a Cue File for Your Songs
One of the first steps in creating an audio CD with ImageBurn is to create a cue file for your songs. A cue file is a text file that contains the information for each song on your CD, including the title and artist. To create a cue file, you can either click on the "Tools" button and then select "Create Cue File", or you can go into mode and right-click and select "Create Cue File". Either way, you'll see a music icon on the screen, which indicates that this is where you need to create your cue file.
Once you've created your cue file, you'll need to browse for files in order to add them to the file. Simply click on the "Browse For Files" button at the top right-hand side of the screen, and then select the folder where you've stored all of your songs. Highlight all of the files that you want to include on your CD, and then click "Open". ImageBurn will analyze these files and put them into an order based on their duration.
Adding Text CD Files
If you have a list of songs with no titles or artists, you can create a text CD file to add this information. To do this, simply select the list of songs and click on the "Add" button at the bottom left-hand side of the screen. In the window that appears, enter the title and artist for each song, and then click "OK". ImageBurn will add these details to your cue file.
Configuring Your Audio CD
Once you've created your cue file, you'll need to configure your audio CD settings. This includes selecting the size of the disc (700 megabytes is recommended), as well as whether or not to include any gaps between songs. You can leave the gap at 0 seconds if you want the songs to play one after the other, or you can add a longer gap to separate them.
Adding Your Audio Files
Now it's time to add your actual audio files to the cue file. Simply select all of the files that you've already added, and then click on the "Add" button at the bottom left-hand side of the screen. ImageBurn will add these files to the cue file, and you can start to configure how they're going to be arranged.
Creating a Cue File for Your Audio CD
Now that you've added all of your audio files to the cue file, it's time to create a final version of the file. To do this, simply click on the "OK" button at the bottom left-hand side of the screen. ImageBurn will then save the cue file to a new location, and you'll be able to start burning your audio CD.
Burning Your Audio CD
Once you've created your final cue file, it's time to burn your audio CD. To do this, simply insert a blank disc into your computer's CD drive, and then select the "Burn" button at the bottom right-hand side of the screen. ImageBurn will then start burning your CD, and once it's complete, you'll have a professional-sounding audio CD that you can play in any CD player.
