WELCOME TO MINIBURN VERSION 1.0 !
This program will help you create AUDIO CDs from Wavefiles on your computer's CDR or
CDRW drive.
To use, insert a blank disc (CD-R media recommended) into your CD-BURNER, drag some
RAW (uncompressed) 44.1K Stereo WAVE FILES into the BURNLIST, and press the
'BURN A CD' button. Note: do not attempt to add files from a NETWORK drive; use only
'local' drives.
The resulting CD will be playable on a regular CD PLAYER (NOTE: Disc must also be
'finalized' - use the BURN CD + FINALIZE button.)
To AUDITION or DELETE a song that you have placed in the BURNLIST, highlight
(mouse-click) the file and right-click on it to open the popup menu.
This program can be used as a 'plugin' with Band-in-a-Box or Powertracks (accessible from
the audio features menu), and can also be used 'stand-alone'.
PROGRAM DETAILS
----------------------------------
Burn Button States:
BURN A CD + FINALIZE
Use this button if you would like to make a CD that can be played back in any Audio
CD-Player. See the Finalize Checkbox option below.
BURN A CD + NO FINALIZE
Use this button if you would like to burn the current burnlist/files --but also keep adding files
to this disc without closing off the session. Note: Disc won't be playable on a CD-Player
until disc is "finalized".
TEST BURN A CD
Press this button to 'testburn' a CD (i.e., to ensure that your burner setup is working
correctly). If your testburn fails, try reducing the number of open applications and/or lower
the BURN SPEED setting.
OTHER SETTINGS
-------------------------------
Finalize (make playable CD) checkbox (default is true) - changes BURN CD-button. Enable
this checkbox if you would like to close the session off on your CD so that it can be played
back in any Audio CD-Player. Disable this setting if you would like to keep adding files to
this disc without closing off the session.
Test Mode (simulate burn) checkbox (default is false) - enable this checkbox to 'testburn' a
CD (i.e., to ensure that your burner setup is working correctly.) No data will be written to
your disc, and the disc will still be useable after the test burn has completed.
Cancel button - cancels the recording process. If you press this button while burning a CD
you will be given an extra warning/confirmation first (Note: this can cause burner instability.
Reboot recommended when using this function in non-test mode.)
Add button - launches a standard Windows File | Open dialog. Select a file to add to the
Burnlist. Press the ADD button to add 44.1K Stereo WAVE files to the burn list.
About button/system menu - shows current version and basic instructions.
Burnlist Window
Drag 44.1K Stereo WAVE FILES into the Burnlist Window. Sort the files by dragging the
files into the order that you would like them to appear on the disc. Right-click on a filename
to Play/Stop/Delete (or double-click to remove).
DESCRIPTION OF FILENAMES
--------------------------------------------------
MINIBURN.EXE - main program executable. This program can be run as a plugin from
within Band-in-a-Box or PowerTracks Pro Audio, or can be run "stand alone". Double-click
this file (located in the main Band-in-a-Box or PowerTracks folder) to run the burner
software.
DONE.WAV - this wave file (if present) will play when the burning operation is complete.
You can use any standard wave file- just save it as done.wav and the program will play that
file when done.
BURN.TXT - the program automatically looks for and loads files specified in the burn.txt file
at the beginning of a burn session. Band-in-a-Box and PowerTracks Pro Audio create a
burn.txt file when the burner program is launched, adding the "current song" to the burnlist
automatically.
ACDWRITE.OCX - an active X control that is registered and installed into Windows. This
file is required for the burner software to operate.
HAVE FUN !
