^^appreciate you getting back to me. I may try that accurate rip that you use if its freeware.

No problem, and yes it's free.
If I remember correctly, when installing EAC you'll be asked if you want to use AccurateRip. So maybe you're already using it.
(check EAC log files for the message: All tracks Accurately ripped)
If you're not using AccurateRip, simply install EAC again and say yes to that question.


I really like it when cd-ripping software uses AccurateRip because the 'All tracks Accurately ripped' message means that the copying process was 100% succesful. No errors, so no need to check the files.


If there's anything else you want to know, check HydrogenAudio:

Re: Guy J - The Trees, The Sea & The Sun (2CD)

^^^ again I appricate your insight. I do have one more question...

I have already extracted alot of my cds into .wav format with EAC. Instead of having to extract all this music again into FLAC, I was thinking of converting the .wav to .flac with Switch sound file converter. Would I lose any of the quality by doing this? Also was not sure if that is a good program to use or not.

just trying to save some time having to re extract the files from the cds....Thanks again

Re: Guy J - The Trees, The Sea & The Sun (2CD)

Switch sound file converter will probably not mess this up but I strongly advise to use a more well known program such as foobar2000, dbpoweramp, and even EAC can convert .wav to .flac
You can even do it from the command line: flac -8 "Your music file.wav"

The problem with all these methods is that the tags will be empty.
There are ways to auto-fill the tags using Foobar2000 with a discogs-plugin. And also MP3Tag can do this, depending on Folder and Filenames. I ripped my cd's many years ago, so unfortunately I don't have the perfect answer for your question.

Check the hydrogenaudio site, the wav to flac question has been asked there so many times before.

very tempted to buy the Cd Vinyl package....kind of wish there was a mini sampler to check it.

^^^thanks, kind of regret buying it now that I have heard the previews. doesn't sound anything close to the level of quality of 1000 words. keeping fingers crossed the full length sounds better.

Re: Guy J - The Trees, The Sea & The Sun (2CD)

I've got a funny story about that.... involving a Country Club (in tampa) and a member who's a friend of a friend....

I started to listen to the preview but they were really short and Guy tends to build so I doubt we would get a good representation. I hope I am right about that

I have listened to 1000words recently and by god it's so good. Definite classic

wishful thinking on thinking the cd and vinyl would actually get here on its release date when ordered from bedrock but none yet.

so those who may have bought this and those who has heard it and what do you think. not seeing ANY buzz on this, are mix cds dead????

i got the cd from amazon and i got free mp3 with it ( individual tracks and the two mixes )

started to listen to it earlier, found it good but really nothing special..... will give it another listen later

Re: Guy J - The Trees, The Sea & The Sun (2CD)

Same here, not really impressed with this one.

Re: Guy J - The Trees, The Sea & The Sun (2CD)

I got the two mixes for .99 each on groove music ... 30 mins into the first one and I really like it thus far

Re: Guy J - The Trees, The Sea & The Sun (2CD)

cd and vinyl did indeed arrive today, bedrock never fails to deliver, wonderful sounds especially on the second disk. i love it.
