Thanks ceejay, now it makes sense. I have the -6 in the command line option of EAC and I selected Compression Level 8 (Best) in dBpoweramp. Talking about gaps... I forgot about this. There are functions in EAC to detect and leave out gaps before ripping the CD. I have not found these features in the dBpoweramp ripper. Did I miss something or do I have to use a separate tool to remove the gaps? ceejay;177765 Wrote: > > Creating the M3U is an option in EAC, you didn't need it, SS won't miss > the file. > Ceejay Great... A couple more questions: In regards to the ripping accuracy reputation of EAC... would it be safe to say that dBpoweramp is just as accurate because it uses AccurateRip? I do not comsider myself a pro... so Am I missing a critical feature of dBpoweramp "Reference"? I decided to save 10 bucks and bought the Powerpack & MP3 license. So far, I'm very happy with the streamlined ripping process using a single tool and with the results I'm getting with R12.
