Imperfect rips from Hdx? Help!

Posted by: Audioneophyte on 19 June 2012

Ok, new Hdx and on some cd's getting clearerrors from the rip... But no errors from the ripping report...  Any help?  For the money I frankly expect perfection OR a clear. "hey polish up the disk and rerip"

You are sure that's not what's on the CD, aren't you?

 

Does the HDX CD reader vary significantly in spin speed whilst ripping? (i.e. you can hear it speeding up and slowing down)

Have you tried disabling rip and just playing the disk directly from the HDX and hearing the same errors?

Are you ripping whilst playing back from the hard disk?  G

What sort of "errors" are you getting? How do these errors manifest in the rips? (I'm assuming some kind of audible glitch?)

 

Are they always in the same place when you play the rip back (i.e. is it an error in the file)?

 

Cheers
