TSGL: A PROGRAM TO CONTROL THE SOUND ON A CD

[Trio800_BonBon]

I don't understand why you put them on a cd-rw to 
listen to them. You can do the same if they're on your 
hard drive.

My procedure is to set up a directory just for cd 
tracks that I'm thinking of burning. If I don't like 
them I delete them from the directory. When I have 
enough for a CD, I pick the tracks I want and load them 
into the burning software, change the play order (if 
needed), make sure the "normalize" function is checked 
and burn the entire cd at once.

I've never burned one at a time, but my guess is that 
some cd players won't play the cd until the cd is 
"finalized". I also think its better to normalize the 
entire group of tracks at the same time rather then 
individually. It may not make a difference but I've 
always done them as a group so I don't have a way to 
compare it.
