Hi Folks,
I have an interesting thing going on. I reciently started using Taiyo
Yurden 52x CD-Rs. I have a Sawtooth with a replacement burner. The
replacement is a HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4520B. It plays CDs and DVDs. I
have not noticed a problem using Toast 6 to burn data on the T.Y CD-Rs.
However, audio burns have definite static sounds. I never noticed the
problem when burning onto Sony 24x discs. In fact, I just burned a Sony
CD-R today and it sounded fine.
I also have a MMD that has a superdrive. I decided to try using Toast 6
to burn an audio CD on a T.Y disc. It sounds fine. I can also burn
audio CDs from a PEAK 5.01 LE playlist on the MMD. I like the fact that
PEAK will verify the audio burn. Toast does not.
All burns were at 4x.
I thought of trying to burn using PEAK on my Sawtooth. The idea was
that with PEAK's ability to verify, I would know immediately if there
was a problem. Unfortunately, the drive is not recognized. It is not
an apple drive. I got it years ago when I was still using OS 9.
I would like to use the Sawtooth for CD burning. However, if the
combination of Toast, an audio burn and the T.Y. CD-R blanks is
unreliable and I cannot use PEAK, I'm somewhat stuck unless I can find
more Sony blanks that work.
Has anyone experienced anything similar or have any suggestions.
Carol
