Using Nero Burning ROM you can save audio files from an Audio CD on the hard drive. In the process, the files are encoded, i.e. converted into a format that the computer can read. The audio file is usually also compressed.
1. Click the Extras > Save Audio Tracks menu.
>> The Copy Audio CDs to Hard Drive window opens.
2. Insert your Audio CD into a drive.
>> The disc is being analyzed and the required information is sent to Gracenote. If an exact matching entry is found in the Gracenote Media Database then that metadata will be used and displayed.
>> If several entries are found then the Matches window opens and the metadata-records in question are displayed.
3. Select the metadata-record that matches your Audio CD.
4. Click the Send New Data button if none of the metadata records match your Audio CD.
>> The Edit MetaData window opens.
The Edit MetaData window also opens if no matching entry is found in the database but you want to enter the metadata and make it available.
5. If necessary, edit the metadata such as title, artist, album title, year, or genre.
6. Click the Advanced Options button if you want to add additional information.
>> The Gracenote MusicID Information window, which originates from Gracenote, opens. After entering the additional information you have to close this window so that the Edit MetaData window is displayed again.
7. Click the Submit Data button.
>> If you have changed the Audio CD's metadata or filled them in for the first time then the changes are sent to Gracenote and entered into the Gracenote Media Database after having been checked.
>> The Edit MetaData window is closed and the information is passed on to the Copy Audio CDs to Hard Drive window.
8. Select the tracks that you want to save on the hard drive.
9. Click the Output tab.
>> The Output tab is opened.
10. In the File Format drop-down menu, select the target file's audio format as .mp3.
11. Choose a method for creating the file name in the Mode for Creating File Names drop-down menu.
12. Define other settings according to your preferences.
13. Click the Copy button.
>> Conversion starts. A folder with the album name is created in the desired directory. The audio files are saved in this folder and named according to the method you chose. Metadata that is identified with Gracenote is written into the audio file.
The Progress window indicates the saving progress. When the save process is complete, this window closes automatically.
14. Click the Close button.
