Can you put audio on CD-R?

With the multitalented Windows Media Player, you can burn your own audio CDs from your MP3 collection. Load a blank CD-R into your recorder. Only certain audio CD players can read a CD-RW (rewriteable disc), so always use write-once CD-R media for true compatibility with all audio CD players.

What format are audio CDs recorded in?

WAV
Audio CDs always contain uncompressed PCM stereo audio at 44,100 Hz sample rate, 16-bit sample format. So to burn an audio CD, export the file(s) you want to burn as a 44,100 Hz 16-bit stereo WAV or AIFF file.

What format is best for audio CD?

WAV file
When creating an audio CD the best source format to use is a WAV file (MP3s are always compressed from CD audio quality to some extent). Converting a 44.1 kHz WAV file to CDA introduces no noise, distortion or coloration to the sound.

What is the standard audio setting for CD audio?

WAVE and AIFF are two audio formats that support 44.1 KHz, 16-bit, stereo audio, which is the standard audio specification used by audio CDs. They are also encoded with pulse code modulation (PCM), which is the same encoding used by CD audio tracks.

Can you record audio on a DVD-R?

To create audio CDs that work in most stereo systems, use CD-R discs. If your computer has a DVD burner, you can burn a playlist on a DVD-R or DVD-RW disc.

What is CD audio quality?

Audio CD bitrate is always 1,411 kilobits per second (Kbps). The MP3 format can range from around 96 to 320Kbps, and streaming services like Spotify range from around 96 to 160Kbps. High bitrates appeal to audiophiles, but they are not always better.

Which audio quality is best 128k or 256k?

Audio file bit rates are measured in thousands of bits per second, or kbps. I mentioned above that a CD contains audio at 1,411 kbps, and when you convert that audio to a lossy file, its bit rate is much lower. A higher bit rate is better, so a 256 kbps MP3 or AAC file is better than a 128 kbps file.

What is CD audio track?

Audio tracks are defined in the Red Book specification for CD Digital Audio (which was the first CD specification).
