Problem with burning audio-CD with Nero 7

Post by marbra » Thu Dec 17, 2009 11:43 pm

Hello,

This may not be a Audacity question, but I' ll post it anyway. I am still a bit of a newbie in converting vinyl albums into audio-CD's.

I managed to make a recording from an album and exported it as a WAV-file. The recording is in stereo, quality -96dB. So far, so good.

Now i'm trying to burn the file(s) using Nero 7.9.6.0 (tried other versions too). Nero won't add the file(s) to the list, because "this/these file(s) may be corrupted". Another message I got was "file(s) are protected". I can't tell wether this means copyright-protected or protected by Windows (?).

I could not find any answers in the forum or the Wiki, so please, if you have a suggestion ...

Thx,
MarBra

It's possible the program doesn't like the Audacity 32-bit Floating setting. Some programs don't.

Put your show on a timeline and convert it to 16-bit.

To change the bit depth of a track: Click on the track name and select the required bit depth on the "Set Sample Format" sub-menu.
To Change the bit depth when Exporting in an uncompressed format: Select the required bit depth in the Export dialogue (Audacity 1.3.x)


Export a new WAV file.

If that works, then you can automatically do all your work in 44100, 16-bit, Stereo by changing the settings in Audacity Preferences and restart Audacity.
