    Cloning a profile in CD Ripper?

    We use a fairly detailed setup for ripping CDs. We'd like to create multiple profiles, one for each workstation user, wherein the only difference is the path where the FLAC files are stored and, of course, the name of the profile.

    So far, when creating a new profile, we've always had to start from scratch and reconfigure all of the Options. This doesn't seem like it ought to be necessary, and it has lead to some serious mistakes...like switching from Secure to Burst ripping method. What are we doing wrong, if anything?

    There certainly should be a option to clone a user profile from a known, complex profile. If it's not possible now, please consider this as a feature request.

    Thanks...

    Off the top of my head the profiles are just keys in the registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Illustrate\dBpoweramp\C DRipper\Profiles

      That appears to be the path to the profile information in the registry, but does this mean that we have to edit the registry itself to clone an existing profile with a new name and path, a rather risky approach? I'm not even sure how to do that. A far more reasonable approach would be to add a "clone" option to the drop-down list of Profiles, permitting a 100% clone except allowing for a change of the profile name, path and (although we don't need it) a change to the Naming algorithm and default CD drive?
