PQ Codes Handling

The PQ codes convey information about title start, sub-indexes, and pauses.

However, when creating a CD, there are a number of rules you must take into account. For example, there should be some silent frames before each title, sub-indexes should be slightly early, there should be pauses at the beginning and end of the entire CD, etc.

When creating CDs from an audio montage, these rules and settings are handled by the Album Wizard. If you do not change these settings, you obtain default values that ensure your CD works properly. However, you can still adjust the PQ codes to your liking. We recommend that you leave the settings as they are.

WaveLab Pro only exposes intuitive title markers and automatically generates the corresponding PQ codes to be written to CD.
