CD Writing Tab (Global Preferences)

This tab allows you to set a number of parameters for CD writing and for the creation of DDP images.

To open the CD Writing tab of the Global Preferences, select File > Preferences > Global and click CD Writing.

CD Writing

Use Burnproof: Fixes possible buffer underrun errors automatically, provided that the CD writer supports this technology.
Allow Disc Overflow: Allows WaveLab Pro to attempt writing more data (max. 2 minutes) than the official capacity of the disc.
Maximum Audio CD Size: Allows you to specify the maximum length for a CD. A warning message will appear if the project exceeds this length. The standard maximum length is 74 minutes.

DDP Creation – Format 1.0/Format 2.0: Determines which format to create when producing DDP files for an audio project.
Write Checksum File (CRC-32): If this option is activated, a file called CHECKSUM.CHK is added to the DDP files that are created on the hard drive. The checksum contains the CRC-32 checksums of the created DDP files.
Write Checksum File (MD5): If this option is activated, a file called CHECKSUM.MD5 is added to the DDP files that are created on the hard drive. The checksum file contains the MD5 checksums of the created DDP files.
Write Log File: If this option is activated, a text file called gear.log is added to the DDP files that are created on the hard drive. The log file logs all operations.
Warn If Files Already Exist: If this option is activated, a warning message is displayed if files are about to be overwritten in the specified destination folder.
