Exact Audio Copy is a truly outspend tool. Its been a good while since I’ve used it given I use my Mac for that sort of thing so I don’t know where the software is at these days. First thing I will tell you is that - due to the truly configurable and customisable nature of Exact Audio Copy - you’ll need to set aside a little time to get everything up and running and making sure that everything is performing accurately. I do know there are tutorials available to help configure Exact Audio Copy so take a look for those with Google. And finally, Exact Audio Copy is exactly that, exact when it comes to Ripping CD’S so don’t be surprised if the software takes an hour or more to rip a single CD depending on its condition, if Exact Audio copy takes five or so minutes to rip a CD then its not working properly <smile.. Also be sure to adjust the offsets for your drive correctly and any other parameters that need attention - dependent on the drive - such as Pre gap detection, C2 error, data ripping mode etc. Enjoy your audio.
