upgrade to the newest os if you don´t have yet, because cd burning is only in os 1.22 and above.
then make sure all your sequences share the same layout (same sounds on the same tracks) and your song plays fine in song mode. now convert your song to a new sequence (to do this make sure you have enough sample ram left).
this new sequence is your whole song, check if it plays fine and then read the manual addendum for os 1.22 from the akai website on how to actually burn your sequence to the cd. after that you can add other sequences till the cd is full or close the session after your one song.
now you should have a cd ready to play in every cd player.

thank you obe, always trying to help people help themself, although it is a little bit frustrating from time to time because some folks don´t think with their own brains. also sometimes i don´t understand why people don´t read their manuals first and ask later - because asking here involves reading and understanding the given answers also... 8)

Yeah I agree,

Ive always found the best way to learn is to sit down and sort your stuff out urself....constantly asking questions seems to take away the start of the creative process!
