John, I would think that the surround sound tracks/coding would make ripping impossible. I would guess if you played the signal through a stereo and to your sound card, you could record, but I don't know hat kind of sound quality you'd get i.e. can you essentially compress the surround down to stereo..
Good luck. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of DJ DOCTOR P Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 3:37 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: SACD Drive Question High Blackwell, I guess I will have to do this the hard way. And that way is, to hook one of the players up to my computer and use an audio editer to make copies of those SACD's. I wanted to use either Windows Media Player and or Winamp to rip and burn copies of these SACD's so that I won't have to take my new ones out on a gig. If you or anyone have other suggestions, I'd love to hear them. My best regards.
