Problem Playing Back Music CD-Rs
Hi,
I have a small portable CD burner that accepts flash memory cards, meant primarily to transfer photos from an SD card to a CD-R, which it does well. However, I digitally record classical music on a small recorder (WAV-) which also uses SD cards. When I transfer the music to a CD-R with this portable CD burner, the CD plays well on my PC. When I attempt to play it on my stereo system's CD player, it does not accept the disc. I then tried copying the music from the CD-R to my PC's hard drive, (Vista Home Premium), and then burning a CD-R from the H.D. in my PC. That CD-R does play on my stereo system, but the music sounds thin and fluttery and unclear. The support tech at the portable unit states that the music on the CD-R from his unit is in folders, and can only play on a player that recognizes folders. Is there any software that will change the music on the H.D., so that a resultant CD-R will play on standard CD players? Thank you. Morton |

The support tech at the portable unit states that the music on the CD-R from his unit is in folders, and can only play on a player that recognizes folders. The folder issue is true, but not the root issue. Most audio CD players will only play discs in audio CD format. The discs you are creating are DATA discs containing files (and folders too, but that is incidental to the primary issue). Is there any software that will change the music on the H.D., so that a resultant CD-R will play on standard CD players? Just about any CD mastering program, including many freebies, will do this. The task you want to do is to CREATE AN AUDIO CD. Deepburner, CD Burner XP, Burnatonce, Imgburn, are some of the popular freeware offerings. |

Morton Hi smh and Mike, Thanks for the replies. In the field, I burned a CD-R of the music from my digital recorder's SD card.As I said, that CD-R plays in my PC's CVD player, but not in my audio system's CD player. Next, I copied that CD-R to my PC's hard drive. Then , utilizing Roxio Creator Suite, I created an audio CD-R from the hard drive. That CD-R does play on my audio stereo system, but the music is harsh, fluttery, and without body. There is a mismatch somewhere. When I copy the SD card's music from my digital recorder directly to the H.D., then burn a CD-R, that works just fine. When the source is a CD-R from the portable CD-R burner, it does not. I would like very much to be able to burn a CD-R in the field, of recorded music, as a backup, and have a CD-R that really plays in my audio system. Thanks again. Morton |

R-09: WAVE/MP3 Recorder. 24-bit/48kHz (or 44.1kHz) Up to 320kbps MP3 If the file extension of cd-r is .cda, Roxio converted 24-bit to 16-bit and that conversion must be the source of losing fidelity (although they say the conversion does not lose much). Conversion from 24bit to 16bit Audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/ If the file extension of cd-r is .mp3, you need to find out the bit rate used by the recorder. Play the Recorder file (in SD?) in Windows Media Player, File menu, Properties. It will show the bit rate. Next find out where you can specify the bit rate in Roxio and set the bit rate to that of the mp3 file. (Audio cd: 16-bit/44.1kHz/stereo) (cd quality: 128kbps) |
