Recording the CD

With the tracks of your LP recorded in different Wav files, you will be able to record your CD (or convert the files to the MP3 format, if you wish - the Sound Forge itself does that, you just have to open the file and save it using the option Save As altering the kind of file to MP3).

If you use a program such as the Easy CD Creator, just start a new audio CD project (CD-DA) and drag all the Wav files that represent the tracks of your vinyl record to the project, not forgetting to put the files in the same order in which they were recorded in the original record.

An important tip when recording: you have two options to record audio CDs, Track-at-once and Disc-at-once. The first option should be used in case you want a 2-second blank space between each track. The second option eliminates that space and is specially recommended for records where the songs were originally continuous and you just separated the files to create an index system (that is, to allow you to skip directly to a track of the disk and not create a CD with a single continuous track). Do not forget to ask to close the disk, or your CD will not be able to be read by regular CD players.
