CD recorders
 

System: Rotel RA-02 amplifier, Rotel RCD-02 CD player, Quad 11L speakers,
Pioneer DVD 5100H hard drive/ DVD recorder.



I have been burning music CD's on my computer but get distortion on the odd
track at high frequencies. I have tried burning at various speeds and using
various makes of discs but get no improvement. I have now decided to buy a
purpose built stand-alone hi-fi CD copier and wonder if anyone has used
them.



I have in mind the Sony RCD-W3 twin deck or the Philips CDR796 twin deck.
The recorder will not be connected to the hi-fi as my hi-fi is also
connected to the TV and Skybox and all lives under the TV in the TV cabinet,
so I have run out of space and will use headphones if needed and then play
the recordings on the Rotel. Can anyone tell me if I can do compilation CD'
s from more than one CD on these recorders like I can on my PC and has
anyone got any recommendations?

I think you are throwing away your money. I can't see what a stand-alone cd
recorder can offer more than a PC cd writer.

Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for you are tasty and good with ketchup.

But the PC CD writer is creating high frequency distortion for some reason
which pees me off seeing that I have spent around £1500 on my Hi-Fi if I
include speaker stands and cable.

Funny how every newsgroup has a village idiot on it who thinks he is funny
but contributes nothing!

What CD burning software are you using? You should be able to make 'bit
perfect' copies i.e. identical copies using sonething like Clone CD or Nero.

I use CloneCD V4.2.0.2 and cannot tell the difference between a copy and
original.

I *very* much doubt it. We're talking digital recordings here. Perhaps
the software you use has some issues? try something else.

This is music you make yourself, right? How are you sure it's the
burner that's causing the problem?

If it's not your own music, then play the originals.

The CD writer in the computer offers much more flexibility in what you
can do with the CD and the music than a standalone HIFI CDR unit could
ever hope to do.

Why not share the problem with us and see if we can help? What kind of
PC is it? What software do you use?
