Creating an archive when burning a disc

When you're using the ToolsBurn Regions to Disc or Burn Disc commands, you can choose to create an archive of your burn session. An archive copies the contents of the CD to a folder on your hard drive.


  1. Set up your project as needed.
  2. Choose ToolsBurn Regions to Disc or Burn Disc.

    For more information, see "Creating tracks and burning a disc from a single file" or "Burning a disc using all open files."

  3. In the Burn Disc dialog, click the Archive tab.

    1. The Archive folder box displays the path to the folder where the archive will be created. Click the Settings button to choose a different folder.

    2. Select the Use current date to prefix archive folder check box if you want to include the date in the folder name.

    3. Select the Include source media in the archive check box if you want to copy your audio files to the archive folder.

    4. In the Comments box, type any comments or notes you want to record regarding the archive.

    5. Select the Open report after archive if you want to view a progress summary after the archive is created.

    6. Select the Archive burn session check box to create the archive, or clear the check box to preserve your archive settings without creating an archive.

  4. Verify the track list in the Burn Disc dialog, and click Burn Disc when you're ready to start burning and archiving.
