Umm, why do my mp3's sound like this?

[TheWhatKiwi]

Tried ripping a few cd's and this was the result.
http://cl.ly/5NJM

Tried two different cd drives.
Tried 15 different cd's.
Riped in .mp3, .flac, .wav and ,ogg

They all sound like this.
Tried a different computer and they rip fine.

Thoughts?

Edit: I should also add... Some cd's are ripping fine on the above machine...

What are you using to rip? Maybe try a different program.

 

[TheWhatKiwi]

Tried Itunes, WMP, Dbpower amp and Easy CD-DA Extractor

How about trying Exact Audio Copy? It should give you metrics of how good or bad the rip was.

The one common thing here is your optical drive. When you go to another PC, the problem goes away. Have you tried a second optical drive in the first PC?

 

[TheWhatKiwi]

Yeah bought a new one and installed it... both do it.

Tried EAC.

Even tried ripping the cd as a .iso (data) and doing a v drive and ripping it. Still did it.

Okay -- which optical drive are we using here? SATA? Which motherboard?

 

[TheWhatKiwi]

Samsung Internal Half Height DVD-W Supermulti SATA 22X Lightscribe (Black)
Dell 0F896N Mobo - Bios A11

 

[stahlhart]

Do you have another open SATA port to try the drive on? I'm assuming you moved the drive to another PC, and it rips correctly there?

Have you tried running DPC Latency Tool to see if something is hogging the bus?

 

[stahlhart]

Does the motherboard's BIOS automatically detect the Samsung correctly? Are there IDE adjustables in your BIOS? If XP -- Did you try the checkbox for digital audio in Device Manager for the drive?
