5.1 recording/ripping?

[blueshift]

System is C2D 2.4GHz , Intel G33 motherboard, no gfx or soundcard installed.

I have an Audio CD with 5.1 sound compressed(?) and want to create another duplicate CD. Using WMP, it rips to stereo.

How can I rip it to all 6 channels?(without using addon cards) Can I copy the image first and then burn?

WMP can't rip DTS quality sound keeping the same format...just ISO it n burn

I know that Nero's SoundTrax application has ability to mix and create 5.1 & 7.1 channel sounds... and it also has a Audio CD ripper..
So i think it has the ability to rip all the 6 channels of your cd..

Try with only Professional quality software..i.e.Sony Vegas 8 and Sony Soundforge..

CD to CD, then why WMP ?? There are many free ISO recorder and burner available in case you dont have NERO like software available simply make a CD to CD image copy and burn

Why would you have to Compress in case of CD duplication ???

^ sorry I have used the word compress for Audio CDs. I meant the Audio CD has 5.1 sound.

I was unsure about the ISO image thing.
Thanks. That cleared my doubts.

If you want to create a duplicate CD then as choto said CD to CD copy using any burning s/w is the solution...............However if you wanna rip the songs off......on to your HDD with complete 6 channels ....I uploaded this guide on the fourm. Link is below. Hope that would come in handy to you in some way........
