Enhanced
CD Lesson Number 1 Unk's
Enhanced CD Lesson Number 1 --------------------------------- Folks: All
you need to know about the basic Enhanced CD is
this: Audio
session first Data
session second. So,
at the end of your album, say, you can put your
video; or your bio; or your CD-ROM presentation.
Very easy in fact. Most burner programs like Easy
CD Creator have an option to burn this type. The
important thing is to get the audio session first,
and the data last. By default, a regular cd player
reads only the first session, and vice-versa for
non-multi-session cd-rom drives. If
your burning program won't do this, you can still
do it by burning your audio session, and closing
the session but leaving the disc open. Then, write
your data session after. Easy,
huh? The hard part is the content. You need good
content, presented in an appealing way. That's
where I come in (heh heh shameless plug
follows) If
anyone is interested in having mastering work,
Enhanced CD, lo-fi music videos or CD-ROM
presentations done, that's what I do; and it looks
freakin cool. My Studio "FibiiSonic" has been
targeting indy bands and dj's that want mastering
done professionally on a tight-ass budget - *AND*
bands who want to go the extra mile and put cool
content on the album as well - in the CD-ROM
section. Very cool - take it out of your cd player,
plop it in your PC or Mac, and
*shizznit*! -
click here for the video -
click here for photos -
click here to email the band -
click here for merchandise etc
etc. We
do everything from the mastering to the graphic art
to producing the video, editing the footage and
putting it into a Macromedia package or
browser-oriented presentation. On the mastering
tip, it can look easy, but if you really want your
album to sound pro, get someone who knows what the
hell they're doing - like Cape! ;-) Actually, Cape
wrote a kick-ass article about mastering. I keep it
under my pillow, letting it osmose into my brain.
(maybe he would be kind enough to post the link
again; Cape?) If
anyone is interested, email me private and we can
chat about it Regards, Unkhakook. Head
guy, FibiiSonic Studios. |
