Burn v1.0

Your music. Your mix. Your CD.

There's something special about creating your own CD. Whether it's a carefully curated driving playlist, a seamless live performance, or a custom compilation of your favorite songs, Audio Arkitekts BURN brings the joy of making physical music back to your collection.

Turn your digital music files into real audio CDs designed for playback on compatible CD players. Choose your tracks, arrange them exactly how you want, and let BURN take care of the technical details.

No complicated burning software. No unnecessary features. Just a straightforward way to put your music back on a disc.

Make every CD your own

• Create real audio CDs. Convert supported music files into standard 16-bit/44.1 kHz audio CD format for playback on compatible home, car, and portable CD players.

• Prepare your audio properly. Built-in audio preparation handles the conversion process, with optional Auto Dither when reducing higher-bit-depth audio to CD's required 16-bit format.

• Control how your music flows. Choose gapless playback for continuous albums, live recordings, and DJ mixes, or add traditional two-second gaps between tracks.

• Give your CDs the finishing touch. Add album titles, artist names, and track information using CD-Text, supported by compatible CD players.

• Take control of the recording process. Select automatic or manual burning speeds, with disc-capacity checks and blank-media detection before writing.

• Test before you burn. Verify afterward. Run a simulation to test the recording process without writing audio to the disc. Optional post-burn verification checks the finished disc's track structure and layout.

Because music deserves more than a playlist

There's a certain satisfaction in selecting your favorite songs, arranging them into the perfect listening experience, and creating a physical CD that's yours to keep.

Whether you're making a custom compilation, bringing digital music into your traditional HiFi system, or rediscovering the pleasure of physical media, BURN puts the creative process back in your hands.

No streaming subscription required. Just your music, your CD burner, and a blank disc.
