32 Creating Discs

2. Insert the master disc into your PC's CD drive. In the

drive list on the left of the screen, select the PC's CD drive

by clicking on it. Press F4 or, click the Disc Explorer

button.

3. The Disc Explorer Window will be displayed. Check in the

Disc Explorer that the source disc is correctly read. (Click

on the Force Refresh button if the Auto Refresh checkbox

is not checked).

4. To copy the entire CD, press the big Global-Image button.

In the panel that appears at the bottom of the Disc Explorer

enter the file name that will contain the disc image. ( uses

a .GI extension). Then press Build.

Please note that this method of building a disc image creates a

saved file on your computer's hard drive. These files can be

very large, up to 700MB for a CD and 4.7GB for a DVD. You

may want to create only a temporary image that is

automatically deleted after your copy job is done. To do this

instead, build your job image file using the Disc-to-Disc option

from the main File: New Job drop-down menu.
Be sure to click the checkbox that reads Make a Temporary

Image on the Hard Disc and Copy From There. The job will

build automatically, make the number of copies you've

specified, and delete the disc image afterwards.
To copy specific tracks from the CD, highlight the desired

tracks then click the Extract Track button. This will allow you

to take the individual tracks from the disc and convert them to

Wave files. This is useful for making a compilation disc of

tracks from different CDs. When creating an Audio Job from

the

Application Window

, WAV files are converted to CD Audio

on the fly.
Wait until the image is completely built and then close the Disc

Explorer dialog.
From the Menu bar, select File: New Job: Global-Image or

Other Image Job. A Job Window will now open in the right

side of the application.
In the Image Job dialog box, enter the name of the .GI file you

just created into the Image field name. A drop-down box will

contain all the recent images you created and you can easily

select from this list if you choose.
