Burning CD-R's
View this Thread in Original format

I've just heard that its recommended to burn at 8x-12x max for CD-R's intended to be used with CDJs. I usually burn at 32x and every now and then I'll burn a track and it will skip in 2-3 places while playing...could this be why?

i burn as fast as my writer can, 48X, but since i only do 1 track per CD, the inner portion burns around 24X. I NEVER had a problem with CD skipping. Especially if you have burn-proof or what ever your writer calls it, you really should have no problem.

Yep. The faster a CD burns the more likely it is to have errors in it, which cause it to skip. For CDs that I'm going to use in a CDJ I burn them at 1x. It takes awhile, but it wont skip.

I burn on average 8-10 tracks per CD, so maybe thats why. I'm gonna start burning at 12x and see how that works.

Dunno, I always end up burning some last minute discs before I spin though so I get impatient :p

well depends what you mean "software" the best software available to rip is EAC or Exact Audio Copy. The encoder to use LAME.
