Yep thanks for that, again I'm at fault a bit here, when I spoke of xomparing wave files I wasn't talking about listening, that would be near impossible for me at least, I meant comparing them with a tool that does thatsort of thing. Exact Audio Copy and Max Rippers have such tools and I dare say other rippers do as well.

With regard to off-sets, I have an Elisis hard disk mastering box which is designed to produce good error free, or as near as possible, Red Book CDs. One of the adjustments you can tweak is off-set. The reason for this is more to do with some CD players not handling off-sets the same way. This results in some players clipping the beginning of a track. Being able to adjust for this is useful. I'd say also that the more perfect the resultant .wav, AIFF, whatever file is you rip to, the better subsequent conversions are going to be. Yes, you don't have to go to all this trouble, but obviously some will.

The paranoid ripper? Are you referring to Jack, the paranoid ripper? <grin> Blessed Be, Dana that's Dana, D A N A, NOT Donna, D O N N A If your synthesizer pronounces them identically, instruct your customized pronunciation dictionary that Dana=dayna.
