Monkey Woe

I have wapet and Monkeys Audio installed in EAC but I cannot get the compression to function. For the Wapet instalation I have C:\Special\wapet.exe. For the monkey instalation I have C:\Special\Monkey's Audio\MAC.exe. When I record with EAC at time of compresion I get the error message "The system cannot find the path specified". Obviously I am making some very basic error. What might it be?

Add quotes.

If you mean to put C:\Special\Monkey's Audo\MAC.exe in quotes in the additional command line options block in EAC (along with all the other entries) I had already done that. I have it as %d -t "Artist=%a" -t "Title=%t" -t "Album=%g" -t "Year=%y" -t "Track=%n" -t "Genre=%m" "C:\Special\Monkey's Audio\MAC.exe" %s %d -c4000. Thoughts?

Here's my command line:
Code: [Select]
/c ""C:\Program Files\Exact Audio Copy\wapet.exe" %d -t "Artist=%a" -t "Title=%t" -t "Album=%g" -t "Year=%y" -t "Track=%n" -t "Genre=%m" "C:\Program Files\Exact Audio Copy\MAC.exe" %s %d -c3000%c &&"C:\Program Files\Exact Audio Copy\MAC.exe" %d -v%c"


When using cmd.exe and /c, a set of quotes gets removed, so a second set has been added.

I tried your command line with my paths to no avail. I don't think its the paths either so it must be something else.  I probably should just erase everything, download new, reinstall and start over ( or go buy an Olive).

There is more to getting this right than just the command line.  Did you make sure the other settings are correct?
