Combining Data And
Audio on a CD
There are many reasons to combine data and audio on a CD. These
include the ability to:
■
Make an audio CD and add Word files of the songs’ lyrics or
custom graphics for the jewel case insert
■ Use the CD to store data files and later add songs to the same
CD
■
Make a multimedia CD (see Multimedia CDs on page 7-6)
You can combine both audio and data on a single CD using Mixed-
Mode or CD Extra. The difference between the two methods is the
way in which data and audio are recorded.
What is a Mixed-Mode CD?
A Mixed-Mode disc is a CD that includes both data and audio tracks
in a single session. The data is written in CD-ROM or CD-ROM XA
format in the first track on the CD followed by one or more audio
tracks in CD-DA format.
What is a CD Extra Disc?
A CD Extra disc (also known as CD Plus or Enhanced CD) is a multi-
session CD
. The first session contains one or more audio tracks in
CD-DA format followed by a second session that contains data
tracks written in CD-ROM XA format.
