Using Beatmatching

Beatmatching automatically adjusts the tempo and synchronizes the beats
between tracks to create professional sounding audio CDs. You can create
high-energy transitions between tracks and export your entire track list to
an audio CD, or as a single file to your portable device.
Note Beatmatching is only available if Audio CD is selected as
the project type. It is not recommended for tracks that have
drastically different beats per minute. For example, using
beatmatching for two tracks that are 110 BPM and 140BPM,
respectively, will result in a rough transition.
To use Beatmatching for an entire track list:
1 Click the Beatmatch button located on the toolbar.
2 Click OK to continue.
Music Disc Creator then scans your track list and analyzes the BPM.
When the scan is complete, the BPM for each track appears in the
BPM column.
3 Click any speaker icon in the Transition column to hear how the
transition between the selected track and the previous track will
sound.
In some cases, Music Disc Creator might be unable to determine the
correct location of the beat within a particular song. In these cases, you
can manually adjust the BPM for a track using the BPM Editor.
