Audio CD Recording Mode

Caution

Please take note of the following points before recording an audio CD.

Analog recording (Windows only)

CDs mounted on an external drive can not be recorded.

The output from the CD drive must be streamed through a sound card

(meaning that the CD audio output jacks are connected to the CD input jacks

on the sound card). Sound quality may be of a slightly lower quality than the

original CD.

When another sound recording application (wave form audio device, etc.) is

running, it is impossible to record with ImageMixer.

Having more than one CD player open may cause problems, such as the

track list not being displayed. ImageMixer itself may also experience

problems. Close other CD players before recording with ImageMixer.

To avoid any possibility that ImageMixer is unable to record in Windows, go

to Control Panel>System>Device Manager Tab>CD-ROM and select the

brand name of the CD-ROM device installed on your computer. From there,

click the Properties button, and finally the Properties tab. On this screen,

make sure that there is no check next to "Enable digital CD audio for this CD-

ROM device."

Digital recording

If digital recording from the CD drive is not possible, try analog recording.

Macintosh supports only digital recording

Recording in Macintosh

When another player is running, recording may not be possible. If [Auto Play] is

selected in the QuickTime settings, playback will begin shortly after an audio CD is

inserted. ImageMixer functions, such as Play and Record, are not available at this

time. Change the settings of the relevant software to disable the automatic play

option.

In Windows, the recording mode can be changed via the

Capturing/Recording Preferences

.
