Learn How To Convert Mp3 Format To CD Format

By Susan Reynolds

MP3 files are the compressed WAV files. In other words, the high quality Wav files are reduced in size to create the MP3 format. MP3 files have some very interesting advantages to them, such as the small size and portability. It is possible to store over a hundred MP3 files into one CD ROM. The music quality is also kept intact. Although the MP3 files have so much on offer, you may still need to convert the MP3 files back to CD format. This is because many CD players do not identify the MP3 format, and hence do not play it. Most car CD players fail to play the MP3 format.

MP3 files, being the data files are easily played on any computer and CD player capable of recognizing them. The conversion of MP3 format to CD format requires decoding software. The decoding software specializes in converting the MP3 into wav format.

If you are lucky to have a CD writer installed on your PC, you may find it extremely easy to convert MP3 into CD. You need to look out for a utility that came wit your CD writer, capable of burning CD. In case you can not find the utility, you could browse through the CD that came with your writer and install it. Different utilities would have their own user interface. However, the following steps would help you convert MP3 into CD on most utilities.

Once you have installed and opened the utility, you should find a few options to begin with, such as data, audio, photo and video, backup, favorites, and extras. However, the option that says audio, or something similar to it is the one that should interest you. You need to click this option, and then you should find a dialog box that has an empty panel, and probably a button that says "Add? or may be "browse?. The window may have some more options, but you need to be clicking on the "Add? button. Once the "Add? button is clicked, you would be able to browse through the MP3 files you want to convert. As and when you add the files, an indicator would let you know how many more files you can add. The indicator could be a progress bar some thing else. Before the files are added to the empty panel, they are converted into the CD format by the application.

You may click the "Next? button available on the window. This will open up another window that prompts you for some more detail, such as the CD title and artist name. Once you have filled up the details you can click on the "Burn? or "Next? option given to you. This will initiate the burn process. It could take a few minutes for the burn process to complete. Once the burn process is completed, the utility will come up with an alert box to let you know the same.

With the above process, you will have completed your MP3 conversion to CD format. If you do not have a CD writer or the utility on you PC; you may look for a decoder on the internet and download it. Any decoder would also function on the similar lines. - 18423
