Digital Audio Extraction FAQ (unofficial) (1470 words)
DAE is the process of extracting the audio from an audio CD by using a PC with a CDROM drive.
The key to great DAE is being able to accurately read the audio tracks without losing your place.
Because the original wav file was configured with a fairly long period of digital silence at the start and end of the track, We configured our comparison tool to ignore digital silence at beginning and end of track and only compare the actual audio data in between.
About Digital Audio Extraction (1113 words)
The most common reason is that DAE was performed at too high a speed for your source CD-ROM or ZipCD drive to maintain proper synchronization of the audio data it was passing to the hard disk or ZipCD drive.
Audio samples are skipped or repeated, causing errors which sound to the human ear like clicks, pops, or hiss.
However, with some drives, getting a clean audio extraction requires reading at very slow speeds, with lots of going back and re-reading the same audio samples over again to make sure that everything is in the right place (this is called audio-resynching or jitter correction).
