Re: CD Problem
burnaware. But before you buy it, you can adjust the output values for replay gain, and total gain of the output files. Look at that first.

Re: CD Problem
Roger, Now I know this is not the answer you are looking for, but I still have a complete analogue setup working here, with full recording capabilities. If you don't solve this problem, courier the discs to me, and I'll send them back with copies in flak format or the format of your choice.

RE: a cd problem
Hi Joe, Boy its good to see that name! I remember when we used to talk microphones on the phone even before the Playback years. Note: I see that I have this folder sorted by size instead of receive date so I accidently pulled up a question that you had back in June. I do not care, I am going to take a stab at it anyways! Addressing your problem 3 things come to mind. On your computer you can produce both mp 3 and wav recorded CDs. The mp3 will often play on a newer boom box but not on an older juke box or CD player. Second, some recorders and players are picky about the brand of blank CD. Just try a different brand. Third, some players are picky about digitall errors. You can reduce the error rate by going into settings in your CD burner software and turning down the recording rate. (slower is better) Take care, Frank Cuta -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Joe Giovanelli Sent: Monday, June 23, 2014 3:09 PM To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Subject: a cd problem Hi, All, I recently started using a laptop to burn cd's.

Re: a cd problem
Yes, I know what you mean. The original Plextalk worked like that. Remember that my disks will play on other machines. I'm beginning to think that I should try a different brand of disks. More than one person told me that they had similar problems to mine.

Re: a cd problem
Do I recall correctly that some stand-alone players at one time required special music CDs because the recording companies were trying to get a cut from burning copies of CDs?

Re: a cd problem
I have seen such things before, its probably the drive in the Dukebox, not quite aligned or needs to be cleaned, but it may need a new drive it that is possible.

a cd problem
Hi, All, I recently started using a laptop to burn cd's. They play perfectly in a blue ray player and in a very cheap cd player. They won't play in my Sony Jukebox. I will very much appreciate your thoughts. Hopefully there's a remedy. Joe Giovanelli

easy cd problem
Hi guys, Sorry about the cross post. Lately I've tried to have Easy Cd creator 5 merge 2 tracks in to 1 file. It used to work fine. Now it will do a minute or 2 of the first track, then stop. When I tell the program to do each individual track in a batch, and save each track to it's own file, it works fine. I have the check button checked that says, "merge tracks to one file" I'd like to merge 2 tracks in to one file and resplit them at a slightly different point. When I put 2 single tracks in to a sound editor, it doesn't merge correctly. Any suggestions?

Very interesting CD problem
Hey guys. OK, I have a celeron 2.4 ghz machine with 2 gigs of ram, and an sb live sound card, but a very strange problem is happening. I put an audio CD in. I can play it, however, I press B to go through the tracks, and wanted to go from track 1 to 9. It took about 45 seconds to get there, and these are 2 to 3 minute songs I'm scanning through. Any ideas? It should never ever take that long to advance through a CD. Any thoughts?
