Burn, Baby, Burn! is your ultimate guide to recording audio CDs. If you're mired in stacks of vinyl, boxes of old cassettes, or have a computer full of unorganized digital tunes, this book is what you need. Authors Josh McDaniel and Bob Starrett-the always-expert and sometimes-irreverent CD mavens-take you step by step through how to record your own audio CDs. Whether you're copying LPs, cassettes, or MP3s, Josh and Bob make it easy to copy, clean up, and record your favorite tunes. Along the way, they provide lots of tips, and they make sure you have as much fun learning as you do listening to your new compilation CDs. You'll learn how to find and use the best software for recording audio, set up your hardware for expert recording and copying, revive your worn-out albums and fuzzy cassette tapes with audio-restoration tools, capture and record audio streams, decode MP3s for use on audio CDs, and burn your favorite tunes to compilation CDs.
About the Authors Josh McDaniel is a columnist and regular contributor for EMedia magazine, though it has been remarked that what he submits could hardly be termed "regular." When trying to trace the length and exact content of his freelance career, Josh finds he cannot—due to a dissolute youth, he can't remember much of anything antedating yesterday. He remembers writing for Wired a little while back, and a handful of other magazines. He also remembers being the co-author of The Little Audio CD Book. Bob Starrett has been a contributing editor and columnist for EMedia magazine since 1995 and covers the CD-recordable and digital audio technology markets. This will be his sixth co-authored book on the subject. Bob is considered one of the world's leading experts on CD recording technology and has acted as an expert witness in many CD- and DVD-related court cases. © Copyright Pearson Education.
