How do we burn these .wav files to an Audio CD? I appreciate any suggestions?

I don't have this recorder so I'm giving some general advice not specific to your problem. I recorded many classes on my Sony PDA, and like you the resulting WAV files would not import into popular CD burning software. In my case, it appeared that the lower quality mode used a non-standard bit rate. The highest quality mode converted fine and I was able to make standard CDs. I believe Sony has since uploaded a patchto correct the problem. Since the Olympus can't be patched, your best bet is to see if Olympus has a program to convert their WAV files into something standard. You should also see if every recording speed gives you this problem. If not, a non-standard bit rate is most likely your problem too. Alternatively, try using some feature-rich converter like Replay AV Converter or Total Recorder (which also makes your PC a recorder). They can convert virtually any format into any other format with your choice of bit rate.

All you need to do is create a Data CD full of MP3 music. Do not use Music CDs, just CD-R type discs.

Lawrence/Melton, thanks for the info! I am thinking about .atrac for nostalgic reasons. Some years down the road, when Sony folds and ATRAC becomes public domain, perhaps ATRAC files will be more playable.. ;) But looks like PCM/WAV is the way to go, as someone else mentioned that I will be transcoding the audio if I save it as ATRAC3+. So I will probably just do PCM and convert it to FLAC for archival and playback. The CDs will be for giving to my relatives so they can play it on any CD player. Not as a storage/archival medium. That'll be on my RAID harddrive. I am picturing another scenario. After all these work (and $$$ to buy the MZ-M200) to upload a pristine copy of the recording to my computer, and put the MD away for storage in my attic/craw space, something happens and I lose the copy on my raided HD, the copy on my RAID NAS, the copy on my offline HD, and the copy on my offsite storage, and I am back to square one, bidding on an MZ-R200 from ebay (as I've probably sold mine), paying dearly, to do this all over again. ;) Well, of course this won't happen, as I can probably still hunt down the copy I gave to my relative, but the thoughts have occurred to me. ;) In the end, I think the MD would've cost me more than if I had purchased a professional DAT player in the first place. There are so much that can be said about why MD failed and how utterly stupid Sony is, I am not going to say anything other than Steve Jobs is the best answer to Sony's paranoia about copy protection. Protected a few pennies, but missed out on billions.

Yes, with any audio CD burning software. Even iTunes, if you record in MP3, save to your computer and import to iTunes like a song file.

I used iTunes and it was easy for me. You should be able to just load the cds you want to listen to onto iTunes and then drag them over to the shuffle (within iTunes).

Yep pretty darn easy, connect to your computer via supplied USB cable. That's how you load your mp3s on and off as well as the WAV files you record.

If the only problem with Windows 7 is the inability to convert .wav to .mp3 as the link you posted seems to indicate, that can be done with lots of other software packages out there such as Audacity.

There is a freeware that rips CD's to mp3 called audiograbber. it will hardly take few minutes to rip a 80 min cd. this should help you a lot.

I don't believe you can record directly to cd but I think you can write a track to cd. if you can, it should be less than a minute.

There may be other ways, but I'd simply burn a CD from iTunes and then rip it to create the MP3 files a copy them to the SD.

It is best to record on cd-r. Also, it depends on what was recorded. Some machines cannot play certain file formars

Did you put in a CD that was burned on a PC...? You may have tried playing a CD burned in MP3 format.

I am sorry those file formats are not supported by the player. In order to get the files to work you will have to recode them based on the instructions provided here:http://content.miccastore.com/node/189I apologize for the inconvenience.Manny

I use MediaMonkey to convert WMA files to WAV format. Then I edit them in Audacity. I think there are also several other WMA to WAV converters listed on download.com, but I haven't personally tried them out.

Yes, I encountered the same issue. The best solution is to import the file into Audacity (free software) and then apply amplification. I usually added some EQ too because they sound too thin. Of course, if you are a purist, you would like to avoid this last step. As I mentioned in my review, mp3 recording here is a good idea but the technology used needs some tweecking. I hope this helpful.

Dear C. Kay,Thanks for your inquiry. There are a number of popular programs to load CD's and convert to FLAC. One is WinAmp, another is Exact Audio Copy(EAC). Itunes does not support FLAC but there are converters that can convert FLAC to what's called Apple Lossless. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

I use a wavplayer program. It is not free. I had to pay for it. I also use Express dictate V 5.18.www.nch.com.au/express to record regular tapes onto my computer and then transcribe using this foot pedal.
