Db Power Amp - is there a better ripper out there?

I wipe the CD clean beforehand if any visible indication of smudge. It usually results in more reliable rip faster than otherwise if smudged to start. if a CD is not clean and/or defective, it can take many rereads for DBpwoeramp to confirm a good read and things can take much much longer if in secure rip mode to assure maximum rip quality.

in some cases with CDs damaged beyond repair you have to bypass secure mode and let it do its thing faster unless you are willing to wait perhaps indefinitely. Often you will probably still be challenged to hear any problems just by listening if teh rip is not perfect as a result.

Bottom line is dbpwoeramp is very flexible in terms of assuring the most accurate rips possible in the best time possible once you learn how to use it.

Mapman, are you playing with me? That's not what I'm referring to and I have a sneaking suspicion you know that. Lol

Has anyone had issues related to ripping 16/44 content from SACD's

The first track always presents issues and go through the re-ripping process using dbPoweramp.

Subsequent tracks are trouble free

Thanks

I am having a problem with dbPowerramp, after using it for years. I am ripping CD's, they show up in the correct folder (iTunes), but there is nothing on them -- 0 bytes!

All the disc info shows up (artist, album, songs, etc.), I see it ripping and doing the checks, no problems are reported when finished, and it is set to put the rip in iTunes/iTunes media/Music, where it always has been set. It shows up in that folder, but when I look at Properties, there is no data!

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Neal

Out of disk space maybe?
