Best Way To Organize CDs (pg. 2)
View this Thread in Original format

You'll need
* printable cd's
* printer capable of printing cd's (example: canon pixma 5300)
* software to make the labels (i use photoshop)

That simply does the trick, though I use a spray to protect the colours, makes them go bling bling to =)

that looks like a painstaking process... :eek:

i burn anywhere from 5-9 tracks per CD, and 2 copies of each CD. i have a few CDs that are single track or single releases, but i only do that if i get a new track that i want to burn immediately... otherwise i just burn everything as i get it, so my tracks are organized in chronological order of when i buy them. i label the key of each track but not the BPM.

one of these days i need to go through and re-key and re-organize some tracks, but i just haven't been motivated to do it yet.

wow good idea. Im gonna steal that :D

how do you put those labels on the cd though. I heard that those labels can get the cd stuck in the cdj from a mate but probably not true lol.

he prints directly onto the cd's its a fairly new technology and a lot of the modern epsons or canons have them.

how do you make it so the CD can be rewritten? I can't find the option


What program do you guys use to burn? just WMP?

Great ideas!

btw why would you burn twice the same cd...?

:p

what about lightscribe....the techonology where a cd writer etches and image onto the cd such that you don't need to print anything...

It might be handy to burn the same cd twice if you are playing a song from the cd and you want to mix in another song from the same cd..

Awesome idea for those cd prints! What kind of spray do you use?

Man, that is great!!!!! I am going out to get a printer that can do that this weekend!!!

Thanks for sharing. BTW, One track per one cd, except for remixes. Keeps it nice and organized. I could not even imagine trying to build a set with 5-10 tracks on each cd. It seems like it would be way too diffucult trying to locate a track. How many tunes do you need when you play out anyway?? Trust me, not that many unless you are spinning all night long.
