Question

How can I download CD burning software?

Community Answer

Both Mac and Windows can burn discs for free using the media players that come installed. On a Mac, you can use iTunes to burn music files to disc. In Windows, you can use Windows Media Player. If you need different or additional features, there are a variety of burning programs available online for free and for purchase.

Question

How do I get all the songs as the same volume on the CD?

Community Answer

Both iTunes and Windows Media Player will automatically level the volume of tracks before they are burnt to the CD. Make sure "Sound Check" is enabled in the Burn window when burning in iTunes.

Question

After I burn a CD using this software, can I add more music to the same disc?

Community Answer

Following this page's steps, no, you cant. You can burn a disc with special configurations allowing you to add more music later, but you may find that the CD won't play in every CD player.

Question

How do I get just a part of a song onto a CD?

Community Answer

You will most likely be able to cut the song down in Video Win Movie Maker, then save that to your computer. This app is free to download off Google!

Question

How can I download a 2 hour long mp3 YouTube sound effect to a standard 80 minute CD, in CD format, without cutting or compressing the mp3 information?

Community Answer

Simply put, you can't. When creating an audio CD, you're limited to 80 minutes. To burn a two hour audio file, you'll need to split it into two 60-minute halves and burn each to a separate disc.

Question

What if I don't have iTunes on my laptop?

Community Answer

Download it from the Apple website (Try searching "iTunes Software download"). Downloading this is harmless to computers and it works with your Apple account/Apple ID.

Question

How do I space the songs separately?

Community Answer

Download Audacity and cut each song into its own tracks and export the tracks separately. Search on the internet for the Audacity manual for more info.

Question

How do I create a TOC on the CD so my CD player will read and play the disc I burned?

Community Answer

Software will do this automatically. If your CD has a corrupt or unreadable TOC ("lead-in"), it is no longer playable without special software to extract the audio data. It will essentially see one long track at this point. Look for damage to the label near the hole of the CD.
