MP3 --> CD converter?

[Guest DVD Spree]

Thanks to everybody who helped with my last request, I've got a few cool little programs that let me convert CD tracks to MP3s, WAVs, WMA and so on. But now I need a program that can turn MP3s back into tracks that can be read on a basic stereo.

 

Backward, I know, but I'm sick of listening to the shit my friends play when we go training and I want to take my own music to listen to. Problem is, they use a ratty old stereo there that stutters when you put an enhanced CD in it, let alone an MP3 one. So is there any way to turn MP3s back into regular CD tracks?

 

Cheers guys.

Go to download.com and search for an mp3 to wav converter.

 

You should easily find what you're looking for.

Sometimes it is the CD-R brand that is the problem, try using Maxell blank discs.

 

Try conferting the file to WAV format then burn the disc, if you burn it in WAV format then use the Data Disc format instead of the regular music format, this might help. If your on MAC burn using the AIFF as it is the same as WAV just burn using the Data disc format.

www.musicmatch.com, the free player owns. Plus you can burn from MP3 to .WAV

WAV/AIFF is the old school way of burning cds and should work on everything no matter what.

Nero Burning Rom or Cakewalk Pyro. Either one converts MP3s to WAVs automatically when it burns the CD, unless you say otherwise.

It's probably also worth noting that Winamp has a DiskWriter plug-in that allows you to create WAV files out of mp3s, just in case you hate MusicMatch.

.WAVs work on regular CD players? Really?

.WAVs work on regular CD players? Really?

Yeah, WAVs are pretty much the same as the actual CD file format.

just get Nero - it does the conversion process automatically when you burn a disc

You MUST burn the cd in DATA format for it to work.

Thanks a million, guys. I've been using CDex to create MP3s (lets you create them from line-in sources like DVD/MiniDisc/consoles too), and it can convert to WAVs, so I'll give it a try.

Thanks a lot man, I'll make sure it's a data disc.

Do this.

You may or may not like iTunes' methods of music management (though many, many more hate MusicMatch than iTunes I've found), but the CD burning options in that program let you specify an audio CD (60-80 minutes depending on the CD.)

 

It even has a feature called sound check that equalizes the volume across all the tracks so you don't go from a song that whispers to another song blasting because someone encoded it too loudly.

here's the easiest way:

Get some jumper cables. hook them up to your speakers, Red goes to right, black to left. Then hook the other end to the blank CD. Play the MP3 you want and it'll transfer, but you have to be squeezing the cables onto the CD when playing it
