EAC, Plextor Premium II & CUE Sheet
2021-06-19 12:43:17
Hello Guys Ok I have a mass of CDs to rip to the highest standard I can achieve. Ingredients.... 1) I'm a very luck boy :-) I have 1 x Plextor Premium II drive (seriously one the best drives ever made for perfect rips.... period !) they do not come any better..... 2) EAC (latest version) 3) PC (I7, SSD etc) after reading many posts about EAC and setting up correctly, I have a few questions and would appreciate some expert help I have chosen to use Burst Mode with Accurip enabled to check rip at end of CD Rip speed in EAC is set to 24x 1) I feel BURST is much kinder to the CD rom Drive rather than SECURE, i.e. BURST MODE .... NOT knocking the guts out of the CR rom drive, when ripping! 2) It Rips the CD in about 5mins rather than 20 + mins :-)Is there anything wrong with what I have done so far ? I have chosen to Rip all my discs in IMG mode ( 1 Track) as this seems a more accurate method over single track mode I guess this is an exact image of the CD (spacing & timing etc) and I can always re-burn a bit for bit copy of the disc in the future if I need too! The only thing I don't like about this mode is when I go in to the folder with the single Wav & Cue sheet, I can't see a track list, I know some players give a play list,Is there anyway when ripping to auto generate a text file with the track list added to the rip folder, so I can double click and see a track list in a text file ? If I need to extract Individual tracks from the big Wav files, I use a program called Medieval Cue Sheet Splitter that reads the EAC cue sheet, It seem to work well for extracting individual tracks from the big single file One other question I am noticing Accurip text file report after I rip varies with confidence values ?? and Accurately Ripped varies too Although I get no errors ? (59/61) Accurately rippedSo why does this not say (61/61) Accurately ripped Are these errors with my rips ?? any help would be appreciated, to ensure I have the best settings setup in Eac Thank you in advanced for any help Below are two of my accurip reports, This first report does not look as good as the second report, though both rips say no errors and see to play fine why does the first report not look as good as the second (confidence etc).
