Amiga MakeCD Support Page

This is the support page for the latest public version of MakeCD. MakeCD is a program to write CDs.

: "MakeCD is the best CD writer software for the Amiga!"

The readers of the German printed Amiga magazine Amiga Plus rated MakeCD being the best CD writer software for the Amiga: MakeCD won the Amiga Plus Award 1997.

MakeCD 3.1 (with optional DAO support) is finished!

It fixes several bugs and problems with MakeCD V3.0 and adds support for the Panasonic 7502 and HP 7100+. It now also allows the execution of shell commands on several occasions, e.g. to play a sound as soon as the CD-R has been written completely or an error occured. You find the details in the history.

The English documentation for MakeCD 3.1 does not yet exist. Get the German documentation, if you speak German. We have included the English MakeCD 2.5 documentation in the archive.

And here is the MakeCD 3.1 archive.

Do you speak German? Then get the German catalog and documentation, too.

The catalogs for the other languages are not yet finished, however, you can download catalogs that are mixed (English with one other language) from this temporary archive.

We collected a lot of interesting information for you. Have a look at the following links:
