meszrum, i think he ment separate tracks. It's not deadly, but still not as close to the original CD as rip to one CDImage track ;)

First of all don't take it as personal offence - it's a great release of a very good artist, it's just not right to do rips this way :) There is a way to do it better - for example, it's nearly impossible to combine tracks into image that is going to be exactly the same as on original CD... That means if I burn your tracks and try to re-rip it from CDR - I'll get different image than you have on original CD... Also, I have no idea what this is

I posted your log because I know few other maniacs who downloads only perfect rips...

Not sure what you mean - if you can rip a CD as tracks - you can rip it as image, right? :) Best way is to post EAC rip log along with your release - it will be clear for everyone what to expect :)

I disagree that it does not matter if it tracks or image - if you spend your time on EAC releases you might as well do it right :D It's important for rip quality - as well as other EAC settings such as C2 or cache settings, ASPI driver etc...

mate, get my idea well... I was tryin' to release the best sound quality in this case - not the best copy. I thought that it was pointless to release some unremastered CD from '86 while I have on the shelf sweet 24bits release [I'm the audiophile]...

the second thing: did you mean my EAC is not configured well? where? if you could point it'd be great...

It will be the same sound if you release the best copy, you can have both :) Here is the link to the best EAC tutorial http://users.pandora.be/satcp/tutorials.htm - with a lot of info about every option... E.g. it's better (more reliable) to disable driver's cache and rip using ASPI driver... In 99% of rips it will make no difference, but some ppl (like me) are maniacs ;)
