Typical errors from bad rips include: start of track and end of track blips - that is a millisecond of the previous or next track included in the ripped track. Very typical for CD-ROMS that haven't got offsets configured correctly.
Jitter - portions of the track with very minor little pieces of what sounds like stutter or echo. Skipping - tracks sounding like they're being fast forwarded for short intervals almost like when using cue and review.

One of my questions is, how do these errors manifest themselves besides unplayable tracks, that is. ----- Original Message ----- From: Dane Trethowan To: PC Audio Discussion List Sent: Friday, October 05, 2007 12:31 PM Subject: Re: Rippers and Conversion Packages I would also add to this message, if you can configure CDEX then you'll have absolutely no problem with EAC and you'll enjoy loads of benefits including error-free rips, that's why EAC was written in the first place, the author was sick of all these "so-called" rippers and their claims of accurate results.
