5 Set burn options by selecting either of the following Mode checkboxes:
•
Simulate write only: This option simulates a CD/DVD burn, but doesn’t write data to the blank
media. This option can be used either alone or in conjunction with the “Write as multi-session”
option (if burning a CD).
•
Write as multi-session: This option is only available when CDDA is chosen in the Mode pop-up
menu. This option lets you add a data session to the same CD at a later date—to add the
project folder, for example.
6 Choose the built-in optical disc drive or another disc burner connected to your computer from
the Device pop-up menu.
7 Choose the write speed for the disc burner from the Speed pop-up menu.
The first time you open the Speed pop-up menu, Logic Pro queries the disc burner for available
speeds. This can take a few moments.
8 Choose a dithering algorithm from the Dithering pop-up menu. For details on dithering options,
see About dithering algorithms .
Note: If you attempt to switch the PCM Resolution to 16 Bit when in DVDA burn mode, DVD
burning is automatically disabled (following a warning).
9 To limit the bounce to only part of the project, adjust the Start and End value sliders.
You can click the up and down arrows, or click one of the numerals and enter a new value.
By default, the entire project is bounced. If Cycle mode is on when you choose File > Bounce,
only the part of the project section inside the cycle area is bounced. You can adjust the Start and
End value sliders to change what part of the project is bounced. For more information on setting
the bounce range, see
Set the bounce range .
10 Choose a normalization setting from the Normalize pop-up menu:
•
Off: No normalization is applied.
•
Overload Protection Only: Downward normalization takes place only for overloads (levels above
0 dB, which would lead to clipping), but no normalization takes place for lower levels.
•
On: The project (incoming audio) is scanned for the highest amplitude peak, then the level is
increased so that the peak is at the maximum possible level (without clipping).
11 Click the Bounce and Burn button.
