GiliSoft MP3 CD Maker review
Windows disc burning with track editing, format flexibility and a $44.95 one-time price.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
GiliSoft MP3 CD Maker is a Windows desktop application for creating standard Audio CDs, MP3 CDs and DVDs, and WMA CDs and DVDs. It suits solo users, small teams and mid-market organizations that still manage physical music collections, compatible car or home players, archives or other disc-based workflows. Audio can come from files such as MP3, WMA, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG and APE, while supported video files can also provide music sources.
The product uses a single MP3 CD Maker plan priced at $44.95 as a one-time purchase. That plan covers Audio CD, MP3 CD/DVD and WMA CD/DVD creation rather than separating disc types into different tiers. It also supports burning multiple copies and creating ISO, BIN and APE disc-image files, giving users options for repeat production and archival workflows. A 30-day money-back guarantee is available, while email is the listed support channel.
Its standout capability is pre-burn audio preparation. Users can arrange tracks, trim audio, mix tracks, adjust equalizer settings and apply voice effects before writing a disc. This makes it more suitable for custom compilations than a burner focused only on copying ready-made files. The trade-off is a Windows-only desktop deployment and a paid purchase, so it is not a fit for macOS or other operating systems, or for buyers seeking a free tool. Choose it when format coverage and in-app audio adjustments matter; consider another product when platform flexibility or a lower-cost entry point is more important.
