Dear D,
Greetings! I've got Toast Titanium 6.0 on my G5 (running
Panther)... here's how I've been doing it.
1) Launch Toast
2) Select 'Audio' in top menu
3) Load music CD into Superdrive
4) Double-click on the audio CD on the desktop
5) Drag desired tracks into Toast's "Drag sound files or audio
tracks into this area" area
6) Select desired tracks; re-order and/or re-name as desired
(When compiling tracks from multiple sources,
I start all track names with a 2-digit number...
i.e., "01. Let It Bee", "02. Hey, Dude", etc.
This makes it easier to assemble the final list
after extracting all the tracks.)
7) Click on "Export" button at bottom of Toast window
8) Navigate to desired drive/folder
This has worked for me so far... I've only had one glitch - an audio
CD-R that a bass player gave me that wouldn't extract the last minute
of the last tune on a CD with 2 songs. I checked the master on a
couple of CD players, and they hung up at the same spot. Bad
Master!!! Thankfully not my G5's fault (nor Toast's).
Good luck,
Scott Jacob Loehr
