I tried to burn 3 BIAB songs to a CD, but only one played back. I burned them without finalizing, then finalized at the end of the process. Did I do something wrong?

Likely will need more info.

*What progam did you use to burn the CD?

*What did you do, step-by-step to burn the CD?

You are correct in waiting until all songs you want are burned before finalizing the CD.

I burned it with BIAB using the "Audio" menu "Burn audio CD". When the box popped up with the "Burn audio CD" button, I clicked that and elected to not finalize. I finalized after I burned 3 songs.

If burning more that on song on a CD is possible, I may have clicked a wrong button by mistake.

I'll just try it again if it is possible. If it is, someone let me know!

Tried the burning again. All the tracks got written, and will play on my computer. But only the first track plays on my DVD/CD player.

When I burned the last track, I choose "Burn and finalize".

I'll try other CD players. I want to use a CD to play back tracks on gigs, so I'll have to make sure BIAB burned CD's play on some kind of player. I don't want to take my computer to gigs.

Any help is appreciated!

Hi Jazzman,

What I do is to save all my songs as WAV files in a single directory. Then, when I have what I want, I use CD Burner XP (freeware) to burn them to CD. It's a simple matter of drag and drop. If you are interested, CD Burner XP (which works on Vista and 7) is at ...

Yes, many of us find it better to find and use a third party CD burning software of some kind, most are much more full-featured, allowing things to be done that the little "miniburn.exe" included with BiaB can't.

I use Nero for everyting related to discs. Copying, images, saving, burning movies... just my preference.


I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.

1. How much did you make in 2023?
2. Send it to us.

Yes Eddie, Nero is probably the program of choice for burning CDs with Windows.

I personally (because I use Roland/Cakewalk Sonar DAW) use "Pyro Audio Creator".

It to is packed with tools and features that go far and beyond just burning CDs.

(just my 2 cents.)

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
