SonicStage 3.3.03: Create an Audio CD

[ngein]

Hello!

For the first time I tried to use the option in SonicStage 3.3: Create an Audio CD.

After transferring the files I pushed the burn button. SonicStage showed the activity of "transferring files" and after a few minutes the burning process started. The warning light in the CD burner equipment blinked as usual, indicating that files were being burned onto a CD disk.

After about 6 minutes a notice appeared saying that the burning process was successful, and I was kindly requested to push the OK buttion in order to eject the disk.

To my surprise the disk still is blank. Nothing seems to have been recorded. I tried several times, but without success. My pc indicates that the disk is a blank one and that it can be used.

I checked the CD burner by copying a disk. That process was o.k., so there is nothingh wrong with the equipment.

Is there anybody on this forum who could help me to find the solution to this -rather strange- problem?

Thanks in advance.

ngein,

Welcome To "AtracLife"

Are you using a used CD-RW cd? Have you tried to burn any other cd (other than that ) with Sonic Stage?

Are you able to burn Mp3 files with Sonic Stage ver3.3?

Thanks!

Initially I used CD-R, 700 NB, maximum speed 52x, which perform very well in the cd burner that I have. (My cd burner has a maximum speed of 40x though.) This was problematic.

Then I tried a -used, but empty- CD-RW with a maximum recording speed of 4x. That went o.k. with a positive result. Great, I was happy.

I also tried the CD-R using several speeds, like 8x, 24x. The result is always the same: The disk seems to be occupied. Using Windows Explorer it takes a while before files with the extension CDA are shown. However, it is not possible to play the files with Windows Mediaplayer V10. The screen of Mwedia Player turns blank.

I do not understand the logic in SonicStage: why is the used CD-RW o.k., while the new CD-Rs do not seem to match?

Any further ideas and suggestions?

I'm also having prblem creating Audio CD using SS3.3.

Clicking on red button after adding tracks starts the process with no problem. Status Display in upper right corner shows "Transferring" and % progress grows. Once it hits 50%, display shows "Writing".

However, this is as far as I get. "Writing" and "50%" just alternate in display and nothing happens even after 10-15 minutes.

I tried slower speeds with no success.

Has anybody experienced similar problem?

Any advice would be appreciated.
