Re: Guy J - The Trees, The Sea & The Sun (2CD)
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: https://www.hydrogenaud.io/forums/
for detailed information about ripping, encoding, tagging and links to useful audio tools.
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.
Re: Guy J - The Trees, The Sea & The Sun (2CD)
^^^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.

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
