(It worked: KDFC Classical in San Francisco picked our album as CD of the week last June, and I sold quite a few that week.) They also alerted me to the fact that classical radio stations insist on very specific naming standards for tracks, and coached me through that.
I used their InDesign templates to lay out the artwork, and they provided the bar code that lets it be sold online through Amazon and elsewhere. They were very helpful: I uploaded all of the audio files as separate WAV files to their website, and they did all of the coding and CD structure that Mike mentions. Since I wanted pressed CDs, I went through Oasis CD for manufacturing. I did learn through trial and error that you needed to make sure the project was 44.1 K and that the audio tracks and markers have to be on the top line of the Sequence or Tracks window. it basically never gave error messages, but always failed to make a functioning CD. Apple’s WaveBurner was great but hasn’t worked in years.įor my last CD, I got frustrated with DP's internal CD burning features. There are other mastering apps out there but I don’t know or have never used them. If you’re going to make a commercial CD, you need an app that can create a DDP to send to the CD manufacturer. Here’s the support page-no mention of DDP
HOFA WAVEBURNER PRO
Logic Pro can burn Red Book CDs $199 through the App Store. I don’t believe it can create a DDP, however. It’s not a full-featured mastering app but will embed your codes. This is necessary if you have any ambition for your music beyond selling CDs at the gig. I don’t think you can embed your ISRC and UPC codes in iTunes.
