Hi guys!

I just started reripping some of my CDs to FLAC and I noticed a very weird problem. While listening to one of the ripped CDs, I noticed that there seemed to be clipping at some places and I was very surprised. I opened the file in Audacity and sure enough it was clipped all over the place. I tried listening to the CD on my CD player (it's the Ibrahim Ferrer album from Buena Vista Social Club - AMAZING music btw.) and I couldn't hear any of the clips...

Do you have any idea what might be causing this problem? I a ripping using EAC on a Dell Laptop.

Thanks!

Could be your CD drive is screwed up, maybe try ripping another CD and see if it has the same problem.

Also, just try re-ripping, sometimes that clears up my problems (It could have been a bad rip).

are you ripping in Burst or Secure mode? Does the EAC log report say if there were Errors?
