Burning a CD from Projects in Studio One (5)
I seem to be having an issue with this. I have a "project" in Studio One and all 14 of my songs are in it. I can burn a CD through Studio One, but for some reason my truck CD player is having an issue with playing them. They play fine on my computer. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

Are you finalizing it?

Good point on finalizing. This can probably be done on your computer

No expert, but when you burn a CD from your DAW it's most likely 24 bit. A regular CD player will not play 24 bit CD's. Also when a disc is finalized it writes a kind of table of contents for the player to read. In the case of an audio CD, that would be number of tracks, when the tracks start and stop, etc..
After the disc is finalized, you will no longer be able to record anything else on it. It will also be 16 bit 44.1Hz. In your DAW or burning software there should be a finalize option. |

Research "Red Book CD", which contains the standards for formatting a audio CD so it can play on nearly all CD players.

Have you ever been able to play burned CDs in your car before? Some older CD drives can't handle burned CDs.

CD-R
In addition to what has already been said above, make sure you are using CD-R's (only writeable once) and not CD-RW's (rewriteable CD).
Older car stereos may only read audio CD's (CD-DA) and not data CD's (CD-ROM), so if your software has a choice, burn the CD-R as an "audio CD" and not a "data CD". You can also purchase CD-R's for Audio that have this flag already set. The files you are burning should end up as .WAV files and not .MP3. To make CD-R's more playable in a car player, buy CD-R's with the slowest write speed you can find. Also, if possible, burn the CD-R at the slowest recording speed your burning software allows. Finally, don't store the CD-R's in the sun or in a hot car. Over time, heat and sunlight will degrade the readability of CD-R's. Hope this helps.

"To make CD-R's more playable in a car player, buy CD-R's with the slowest write speed you can find."
Is that really a thing? Not doubting you, I just have never heard that before. Does a CD with a high write speed have some kind of limit on how slow it is capable of writing? I always buy the most recommended/highest quality. Always burn at lowest speed. |

Not sure how much this helps, but my truck is not very old (2018). TheCDsarejustgetting kicked out now. I have tried several and at this point the CD player just ejects them. I do have a portable CD player and it plays them just fine. Not sure what that's about.

does it play commercial cd's? If so, it probably just doesn't like cdr's.
Have you cleaned it lately?

Actually, the file format on a burned CD is '.cda' (which is WAV + indexing info). You can't BUY slow-speed CD-Rs any longer, but you can set your CD burner to burn at the slowest speed. This is a sampling speed, and was a concern for older (usually first generation) CD players that read the discs at a slow speed, and hence could not read the CDs burned at much faster speeds. It doesn't seem to be an issue with any current CD players, though.
