Recording,
Extracting, and
Burning
This chapter describes recording audio in Sound Forge, extracting audio from a CD, and writing audio to a
CD.
Recording audio
Sound Forge has two central methods for recording: manual (normal) and automatic. In normal recording,
you choose your settings and control your recording session while you’re sitting at your PC. With automatic
recording, you can choose your settings and set your trigger parameters for recording automatically—
whether you’re at your PC or not.
Recording manually
You can record into an existing data window or create a new window at the time of recording.
