Hey. I make copies of all my CD's and I've noticed that a few of them fuck up about half-way through. SAW 85-92 ALWAYS messes up. I've tried everything. Tri-Repetae Disk 1 as well. The originals play fine. WTF is wrong? If CDs longer than 74minutes violate that "Redbook CD code thingy", why the fuck are half of my CD's in excess of 74 minutes? |
||||||||

|
what are you doing making copies off all your CDs anyway? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a direct copy of a cd has worse sound quality doesn't it? or is it the exact same? |
||||||||
|

|
|
it's the exact same |
||||||||
|

i dont know. maybe you could rip the cd's to your pc first, and do a test copy before you actually burn them |
||||||||
|

I'd say it's probably something with your burner, the laser might be off or something. I burn my CDs to back them up. I keep them in a large book, and I've had too many accumulate little divots on the upper surface which then make the cd skip. It pissed me off so much when it happened to the most important part of LP5, like 3:05 minutes into Under Boac. |

If your burner plays the original fine, all the way through, then I would also guess maybe the cache is getting used up too fast, i.e., you are ripping it onto your computer slower than the burner is burning it. So when your computer's chache runs out, the flow of information stops coming to the burner---- too bad, you've just created a coaster. |

What's probably causing it is you're burning them at a very high speed. A cd can go up to 79 minutes and 50 something seconds, but that doesn't really come into it. I know if you burn at like 40x or above it might make the CD fuck up a little in places. I know most people burn slow but I do it at 32x and every now and again I get a little jump here and there. Either that or your burner sucks. |

yo yo, i burn at 32x all the tyme, i'm a hardcore motha fucka. it neva fucks up on ma ass |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I burn at 4X because I have no toher choice :(.... but hey, it's an external cd-r, and that's always useful |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
buy 80min cd's and quit whining |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what's the advantage? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
try take 700mb cdr (80 min audio).... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, if you are burning a cd that is longer than 74 minutes, make sure you are using an 80 minute CD-R, not a 74 minute cd-r |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
90 minute cd's are also avaliable, fancy that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I get those for burning movies. Albums can only go up to 79 mins tho (ones you buy in the shops).... can't be too long before someone releases a 90 minute album though. What's the bets it'll be Tool who does it first? :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Heh, could be, but I think Tool is done for. Lateralus was the start of their decline... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
another question related to that: when i burn a cd i make of mp3s it says like 689 mb or so. when i press the burn button it sometimes went beyond 700 mb e.g. 720 up to 730 mb how is this possible? does nero encode mp3s? is there different sound-quality. btw with my other burner the mb size doesnt vary, hevent noticed burning more than 700 mb though. note: both arent capable of burning 800 or 900 mb blancos. |

I'm a huge fan of tool (I have almost 3 gigs of live bootlegs!!!) and I think lateralus is a work of art, by far their best yet |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
blech, aenima rapes it, anal style |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
okay, i have to give them credit that it made a really good concert. i saw them with king crimson a couple years ago after lateralus came out. excellent concert |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lateralus is much more interesting form a technichal viewpoint, maybe i've overlistened to aenema, but it just seems like i can only listen through aenima once, but I can listen to lateralus on repeat and love every minute of it oh, and reflection owns arse.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nero fucks up the size here too.. but that doesnt matter.. you only have to check if the length is correct |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You can get 90 minutes CDs off of 5inch.com (I think it's there.) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
5inch.com is sweet! they are gonna put a 50 ¤cent tax on cdr's .. so i guess im gonna order em there from now on have you seen the vinyl cds? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I use EasyCDCreator...it works like a charm although i only heard bad stuff about it... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I think it's my fucking Creative non-CD-R drive. It over-spins sometimes even during regular play-back, causing a really irritating hiss at the beginning of some tracks. Of the 25 or so CD's that I have copied thus far, about 4 of them are fucked. Piece of shit Creative. I'm burning SAW1 for the fifth time. I normally read at 52X and burn at 8X. I'm thinking about 8X and 8X just to simmer down the drive. |
