If you are unhappy with the quality of your audio tracks, Nero offers a range of filters can enhance the quality of the music tracks or change the tracks. The tracks are edited 'non-destructively' which means that the actual recording is not affected and only selections are set. The big advantage of the non-destructive method is that editing steps can be undone at any time and no additional audio data are created as you work. The audio files are not actually changed until they are written.
The filters are found in the 'Audio Information' dialog box on the Filter tab. The window is opened by double clicking an audio track in the compilation window.
Clicking the Test Selected Filters button plays the audio track - this lets you check that you are happy with the result before you confirm the changes.
If the audio tracks you are burning come from different sources then the volume of the individual tracks can be matched with this filter. All audio tracks in the compilation must have been selected for this filter to function correctly.
