CD Stomper Click'N Burn
Premium CD Recording Software

by Chuck Moery, SEMCO President, March 2001


I purchased a CD-RW Recorder approximately two-and-a-half years ago primarily to use for backing up my hard drive. Unfortunately, the software that was included with the purchase of the CD was very unreliable and I quickly abandoned the recording feature and used it as a regular CD reader. I was only successful in making usable recordings about half of the time and frequently couldn't use a regular CD to reliably read my recorded disks. I recently was provided the opportunity to review the program Click'N Burn Pro which advocates that it is "Premium CD Recording Software" and offers "Pre-Mastering, Recording and Duplication software for anyone who wants professional results." Due to procuring the Click'N Burn software and an increased interest in duplicating family photos and recorded music, I thought about reviving my use of my CD-RW. I will present an overview of the Click'N Burn program and hold my recommendations until the end of this review.

The program requires a 166 Mhz Pentium or faster PC computer, 32 MB of RAM, a minimum of 15 MB of free hard disk space, a CD-Recorder or CD- Rewritable drive, Microsoft Windows 95/98/2000 NT 4.0 (Service Pack 4 or Higher). Its primary features include:

  • Perform flawless CD-to-CD copies
  • Create custom music CDs
  • Create data CDs
  • Create mixed mode & extra CDs
  • Create video CDs
  • Exclusive WarpDrive feature
  • The program will create custom music CDs from MP3, WAV, or WMA files, your CD collection, Microphone or Tape Player through your Sound Card with DJ Burn. You can also add text information to your CDs about your recorded music and it is ideal for archiving your CD collection. You can insure flawless copies by Bit-to-Bit verification and Create CDs in Single or Multi-sessions as well as having music and data on the same CD. For those who are interested in recording Video, the program has provisions to create Video CDs from standard MPEG-1 files and is playable on most DVD Video Players. You are able to record or duplicate up to four CD-R/RW drives at a time and run multiple projects concurrently. The software package also includes a CD Stomper Starter Kit with software and an applicator to professionally design, print and apply your own CD-R/DVD labels to the CDs that your burn. Anyone who is familiar with Window programs will readily be able to use the Click'N Burn software.

    I have used the Click'N Burn program for approximately six weeks and have duplicated CD-to-CD copies, copied musical CDs, duplicated my personal data and combined various types of data and music on CDs, and, have been successful 100% of the time. In addition, I am able to read all the burnt copies on regular CDs. My recommendation: IT'S A KEEPER. (Ed. Note: website shows a $29.95 pricetag).
