Track At Once. Refers to the way some CD-Recorders write CD-R or CD-RW discs, where a track (with post-gap) is written in one action, but then waits before the next track is written. Each time the laser is stopped, it writes Run-Out blocks. When re-starting, it writes Run-In blocks (a total of 7 blocks). This can cause a glitch when playing audio CDs recorded in this way, so other CD-Recorders use Disc at Once (DAO) recording.
