Track 8 of the CD is corrupted (Excalibur) - this was my favourite track.

Can somebody email me a 320kbps MP3 file for this track please.

You can private message me and I will give you my email address to send me the file.

Regards....and thanks in advance

Sory I don't have it but you can buy it on Amazon for 99p

I have added the album to my streaming service to have a listen. I don't have much French prog other than Lazuli and Harmonium.

This site is very helpful!

I tried to find it on amazon - without success - suppose I will have to brush up on my searching skills...haha

I am currently ripping my entire CD collection to my new SSD on my new super computer  - I will then play my collection through my new Sennheiser super bins....

Mind you it will take me about six months to rip this lot - and I am realising that I have hundreds of CD's that I have never listened to....so I had better live a long time after retirement or I have wasted a lot of money!

There's a lot of free software to make what you are doing simpler. The bad is when you rip from vynil. No software can help you. 

 

You can get record decks that will let you rip vinyl to MP3, I've done it. The only problem is separating the tracks.

Try mp3split.exe or Medieval. 

I recommend foobar - most versatile ripper/converter i've found (can be made more so with plugins - get the encoder pack for full functionality). It's amazingly small but very powerful and doesn't hog much RAM, and completely free/open source.

If you're still having trouble with mp3 try switching to ripping to FLAC (you can always convert that to mp3 later).

Mp3 isn't very accurate so maybe it's struggling to encode straight from disc. (You'll need the LAME encode exe to convert to mp3, but you might find it works better  than the native Windows mp3 encode, if that's what you're using currently).

I'm not ripping much, but I'm using the portable version of Format Factory which converts everything to everything else, both audio and video.

I usually just record vinyl using a DAW like Audacity (it's free). There's an option export to multiple tracks; all you have to do is label the gaps between the songs (which are quite easy to see). Then I use a program called MP3tag which makes it easy to tag the files (despite the name, it works on a variety of audio formats, including FLAC). If you have a decent turntable, you might be better off buying an audio interface and plugging into that rather than getting a cheap USB turntable. Might seem a bit daunting at first if you don't have much digital audio experience, but you can get cables/adapters to plug the RCA out of a turntable into 1/4" plugs on an interface.

I agree with using Foobar for ripping CDs. Although sometimes CDs are just damaged and certain tracks just refuse to rip properly - but where some programs might throw away the entire song, Foobar might give you a version with one or two glitches.

Please do yourself a favor and rip your CDs with EAC (Exact Audio Copy) to FLAC files - format with lossless compression - that's the way to go and don't regret later.

Will need a little time to configure but takes care of the whole business just beautifully (with the much appreciated error correction algorythm ready when deserved)

For vinyl nothing beats Audacity imo.

Then you will want to use Foobar for sure, nice app indeed with add-ons and skins aplenty.

Audacity has an article on how to do this ... you go after the blank spots later, or you can macro the silence when it is right there. Doesn't seem difficult. I tend to record the whole thing and then edit the parts as needed, though I rarely mp3 anything that has 147 tracks on Side 1 of the LP! You know what I mean!

I would like to ask.

Who can I sell my music to?

We recorded an album in Swedish language.

  Inspired by Ynglingsagan Snorre Sturlusson.

You can first try with Bandcamp. I can't guarantee that you will sell it, but it's what that platform is for.

 

Why is it useless? It seems to work for a lot of bands.

If you are looking for a distributor you can try with independent labels, but also them can be found on bandcamp. Some have accounts here on PA, too. 

I have that CD album by Drama. Do you still want to get it?
