[ProAudio] No Titles

Both the free Audacity and Amadeus Pro can add metadat to WAV files, which will carry over into mp3 and m4a files. Not sure about optical discs. I rarely use them any more! I think both of those work on Windoze…

CD-TEXT is not embedded in the files, unless you use DDP creator or the like.

It is all so simple on a Mac, which is all I know. Call me stupid, but a stupid professional!* :-) Roxio Toast will also add CD TEXT from the filename or manual, but not from metadata.

I thought that what I'm trying to burn for titles was done from the .cue file as part of the burning process. Is the text from the cue file considered metadata? And I really don't understand what I see in the manual about it. I'm looking at 21.2.2 in the pdf manual.
