Hi,

I just ripped several CD's, but I've got some bad rips.
Some songs have clicks and beeps in them.
Most of the CD's rip perfectly good, but some don't.
Is there some audio scanner that can read all my rips and scans it for these clicks?
Instead me listening to every song for bad parts...

That way I can use burst mode in EAC and only have to rescan the bad CD's.

Any other suggestions on how to rip my CD collection?
I just started with the CDR copies I made almost 10 years ago, the rest are normal audio CD's.

Dude,

You need this tool: MP3 Shield a small, stand-alone utility that scans your MP3 collections, picking out crappy rips and allowing you to delete them. Save the file to your desktop, double-click on it, then look to the icon near your clock in the lower right-hand side of the screen and double-click on it. Its all pretty self-explanatory from there on it!

With regards to getting decent rips in the first place:

1) Keep the PC 'clean' as far as spyware, virus, trojan, worms etc. There exists some fantastic anti-sypware application like Search & Destroy
out there for free. Additionally, there are also some powerful antivirus tools kicking around the Net' for free - such as 'FreeAVG' antivirus.

2) Keep your PC's Hard Disk Drive defragmented with the free Disk Defragmenter utility which ships with every Windows-based PC made in the past 10 years. (Start / Programs / Accessories / System Tools / Disk Defragmenter).

3) Reboot the PC just before a session of CD ripping

4) If you want really great results, install a second hard disk drive and do all of your ripping to that drive (destination of the ripped files)

5) Don't do [anything] else on the PC while its ripping CDs

6) Clean your CDs prior to ripping them

Thanks for the link to MP3Shield.
I will let it run on my MP3 collection!

The rest of your comments I try to practice regurarly, but unfortunately some tracks are still ripped bad...

Do you use EAC in Secure Mode with C2 Diabled? If not, change it, then you'll have 99,9% perfect rips (depending on your drive age and dae quality).
