Well, first off I'd like to say "Damn you Spoon for releasing R13; I feel like a right traitor for even considering ditching Andre's rather excellent ripper for another" .... and... er... "Keep up the great work".
Anyway, I have a quick question about Gaps and Cue Sheets (Plex Premium, dbPA Reference R13 -Trial-, Ripping to flac, Rip as 1):
Basically, I'm trying to get the best, archival quality, as-exact-as-possible copies that I can.
I would, therefore, like Gaps to be the same lenght in the rip as the original, and for my CD time counter to show reverse negative times where applicable in the gaps.
Here, Spoon said that gaps are added to the end of tracks:
but here, he said that they get prepended:
and that they are also ignored by dbPa and that he considers them unimportant.
Ok, ok, I realise it may be a bit anal in wanting the gaps in the copy exactly as they were in the original, but I wouldn't be considering purchasing dbPa if I weren't a bit anal about getting the best standards as possible.
So my questions are:
1) Are gaps Appended (i.e. Added to the END of the track before the gap -which is what I would consider the most intuitive place to put them) or are they actually Prepended (Added to the start of the track after the gap)?
2) If gaps aren't detected, if there is noise in any of the gaps, will this appear in the copy?
3) If gaps aren't detected and I do a Rip as 1, will using EAC to create cuesheets help me?
4) When cuesheets are implemented in dbPA, will we be able to retrospectively generate them WITHOUT having to re-rip a track (i.e. stick the CD in the drive and select "Create Cue Sheet Only")?
