Configuring Audacity for Orange Book CDs
Orange Book CDs are ordinary data CDs without any special audio encoding. These will play on any computer but not in most standalone CD players like in your car or stereo system. You can mix up audio file formats on these and get a lot more minutes of music on a CD.
In the Edit > Preferences > Devices dialog, select 2 channels (stereo).
In the Edit > Preferences > Recording dialog, uncheck “Overdub: Play other tracks while recording new one” and “Software Playthrough: Listen while recording or monitoring new track.”
In the Selection toolbar, select CDDA Frames (75 fps) and check the “Snap To” box (Figure 5-2).
