Not really. If a gap is present, it will automatically be added to the end of the track. If you really, really want to have the gaps where the artist intended, press F4 to detect gaps. This will determine if the gap gets added to the start or end of the track. An entire album played at once would sound identical regardless if you pressed F4 or not, but if the songs are out of order or played back at random the gaps would not necessarily be in the right place. Only makes a difference if you're really, really serious about your gaps. :-) > I did rip a few discs for testing, and they all seem fine -- no gaps > where appropriate in both foobar and on the SB, so I'm wondering what > all the fuss is about (pages listing drives and the offsets etc. you > should use etc.) The listing of drives shows drive features if you want to set them manually. EAC detects drives well, and if it's working, it'll just be fine-tuning on your part. Drive offsets are to compensate for a drive not quite finding the track separations perfectly, but usually they're off by only a few hundred samples, in the millisecond range. That means the first or last few milliseconds of the song may be cut off - not something you'd likely notice, but the copy won't be 100% "bit perfect".
