You can read audio tracks from regular CDs and save them as a digital 
copy in any audio format on your hard disk.
Although WaveLab LE supports a large number of CD drives, there are 
some restrictions you need to be aware of:
• Observe and respect any copyright notices on the CDs from 
which you are importing tracks.
When importing tracks, they are named “Track XX” by default, where 
XX is a number starting at 01. The numbering scheme can be changed.
