Confusion Now Eliminated; Burning Discs Made Easy

Let's face it: Most users are confused by the complexities of recording a CD, DVD or Blu-ray on today's PCs.

There are hundreds of complicated functions available, and dozens of choices to make, most of which are too technical for the average person to puzzle out. Windows itself provides only minimal disc-burning support. As things stand, you often want to scream: "Just burn the disc like I want!"

But all that's now over.

Ashampoo Burning Studio 12 transforms your computer's disc burning (recording) functions to a simple, fast process you can understand and accomplish without breaking a sweat.

Ashampoo Burning Studio 12 Cuts Through the Difficulties

In previous versions, this software has established a track record for providing full disc-burning functionality with vastly improved ease-of-use. The newest version, Ashampoo Burning Studio 12, now takes disc-burning to a whole new level.

Instead of spending hour after hour trying to identify and learn to use all the complicated disc-burning functions your computer offers, you simply tell Burning Studio 12 what you want. Immediately, the software takes over and manages all the necessary steps to do the job for you. Basically, you select the disc format you want, identify the files you want burned to the disk, and press "go." It's just that simple.

Burning Studio 12 does the rest!

Short List of Tasks You'll Find Easy

With Ashampoo Burning Studio 12, you'll find it amazingly easy to:

  • Make an audio or MP3 CD with the music you want in the sequence you want.
     
  • Rip music from your audio CDs.
     
  • Make your own music compilations, even if they require more than one disc!
     
  • Record computer files (data) onto CD / DVD / Blu-ray discs, even if they require more than one disk -- great for making data back-ups.
     
  • Make customized DVD movies, even with themes! They'll play easily in any DVD player.
     
  • Assemble and record DVD slideshows from still images, even with graphical themes and eye-popping transition effects.
     
  • Make Disc Covers and print them.
     
  • Design disc labels and print them, even directly to printable discs.

... And a great deal more!

Ashampoo Burning Studio 12 Is Powerful

Ashampoo Burning Studio 12 is an extremely powerful software that lets you create images of discs, and then burn them onto a blank disc. This new software version also starts up faster, with a quicker responding and more streamlined user interface.

It also includes full support for BDXL discs (100 and 128 GB), so you can fit maximum data on a single disc. But you can do even more, because Ashampoo Burning Studio 12 has a new disc-spanning capability built-in that supports virtually unlimited storage capacity across any number of discs.
There are also "professional disc authoring" capabilities, so you can create graphical "themes" and menu templates, and easily place the stamp of your individuality to your disc-burning projects.  

The software now lets you:

  • Normalize audio tracks
     
  • Edit slideshows
     
  • Organize graphical themes into categories
     
  • Add empty slides containing colors or gradients
     
  • Apply 'Ken-Burns'-like effects
     
  • Insert credits
     
  • Rip to FLAC and OGG standards
     
  • Burn from CUE sheets (MP3, FLAC, WAV)
     
  • Apply equalizer effects to individual tracks (e.g. Loudness)

These new features improve almost every aspect of the program, which was already pretty awesome.

There's a point-and-click DVD menu editor, too, so you can add animated themes and create great-looking interfaces for all your DVD movies, including ones you've already finished.

Burning Studio 12 makes all your disc-burning wishes come true.
