12. Project 1 Overview SACD 1 is used for authoring SACD titles To author a title you will need to supply SACD 1 with one or two Edited Master files and a SACD Text file SACD 1 will use these to generate a Cutting Master which is a file on AIT tape that is used by the SACD pressing factory to manufacture discs 1 1 Authoring basics During the Mastering phase of creating a SACD title the recording engineer uses DSD 1 Sonoma or other DSD workstation to assemble all of the recordings into a single soundfile and perform final editing The engineer will also add PQ marks The soundfile and PQ marks are exported to a file called an Edited Master Every SACD title will require a stereo Edited Master If the title is multichannel then it will also require a multichannel Edited Master The other file required for Authoring is the SACD Text file This file contains information about track title author names etc It can also have the information available in multiple languages The text file can be created using SACD 1 for text entry or by using the text entry program pro vided by Sony and Philips see http www sacd philips com b2b production editor html 1 2 About this manual This manual assumes that you are familiar with the procedure of authoring a SACD title The purpose of the manual is to show you how to use the SACD 1 program s user interface For more information about authoring SACD titles please see The Aritist s and Produ
