Digital-Inn - View Single Post - Gap and CUE Sheet 101: A simple tutorial for Dummies like me ;)

Good Stuff MestreLion.

Just to make sure I understand everything correctly. If all I want to do is have accurate seperate wav files so I can convert to mp3 or make CD duplicates, then leaving EAC in its default configuration will be good enough. The only downside to this is that the time display will not accurately depict the original CD, which I don't care about.

I just want to make sure I don't have to make cue sheets, especially after Frixzi's comment about keeping EAC in beginner mode and utilizing the cue sheets to burn.

What if I just rip my CD's in default (advanced) mode with no cue sheets and then burn them with no cue sheet. Wouldn't they have the same gaps, etc. without a cue sheet since the gaps are appended by default?

Any help is appreciated since I've been really sweating lately. I have ripped about 280GB of CDs and don't really want to do this again. I have about another 250+ GB left to do.

Thanks.
