Hi, I desperately need some help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just recorded a live performance that went just perfect, a very nice band here in Spain who did a really special show, but the audio CD recorder (standalone) did not work properly, reported errors during recording. but seemed to record somethig at least.
So now I have a CD (TDK Audio CD-RXG) with one session and one Audio track (thats what Nero reports) but I am unable to extract the audio nor play it in a standalone CD player.
EAC detects one 36 min track (I did not set any indices during recording) but when I try to extract the audio, it doesn't seem to be able to read anything, and after a while it reports that EAC was unable to determine a valid read command, and suggest that I change it. I have tried all posibilities of read commands and data extraction methods, with no result.

¿What can I do? I dont mind if it's a painful procedure, but is there any way to extract what's on CD? What programs could I try. I don't mind to end up with corrupted data, maybe there is one song that can be saved, I'll try ANYTHING. Is there a way to read some sort of raw data that can be then manipulated?

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks

put it on the cd-recoder and try to acces it with IsoBuster ... if the session is closed (or the cd is closed) it should read it ... iif not, try to close the session with Nero ... and try again

In EAC, don't try to read from the beginning. Ask an extraction by range, and start at sector 10. If it is OK, try to start sooner if some audio is missing.
Standalone recorders are known to mess up the start point, that is unreadable in CD ROM drives.

If the CDR is indeed full of errors, then you have to try any drive or CD Player you can find. If a CD Player can play something, record it with the soundcrad.

Next time, put the CD-Recorder on a huge wad of foam to absorb all the related vibrations!

I made this mistake a few times Recording DJ Sets at Clubs smile.gif
