Creating an Audio CD on the D12
Go through this section once you have one or more songs completed on the D12.
You can produce an audio CD on the D12, if the optional Korg CDRW-1 drive is installed. Most consumer CD players will not
playback CD-RW disks. If you plan to playback any D12 CD masters on consumer CD players, use good quality CD-R media for
mastering.
Note:
You can also master to compatible external CD-R/CD-RW drives via the D12 SCSI connector.
Before a CD can be mastered on the D12, all track data must be mixed down to tracks 1 and 2.
If no audio data exists on tracks 1 and 2, you can bounce record tracks 3-12 to tracks 1-2 (see Owner's Manual, pg. 29
for more information).
If audio data does exist on tracks 1 and 2, you can create Virtual mixdowns of all 12 tracks, to tracks 1 and 2 Virtual
tracks b-h. (Up to 7 mixes can be created, and the best Virtual mix can be selected for mastering). When writing to CD,
the D12 writes from the audio source on the currently selected Virtual tracks. See the section in this guide titled
"Create a 12-2 Virtual Mixdown". Also see the D12 Owner's Manual, page 30.
Once you've mixed down each of your songs to tracks 1 and 2...
