CD ARCHITECT FEATURES

You asked, and Sonic Foundry has delivered. CD Architect, already a standard in the industry, now supports IDE/ATAPI CD-R drives.
Design professional audio CDs to Red Book spec with Sonic Foundry’s new CD Architect. Tracks in the PQ List can be assembled with regions from single or multiple sound files. Full PQ code editing allows even the most sophisticated mixes and crossfades between tracks. Used as either a stand-alone editor, or as a Sound Forge 4.5 plug-in—and with support for IDE/ATAPI CD-R drives—CD Architect is ideal for building audio CDs on Windows 9x and Windows NT. Below is a list of CD Architect's features.
