Setting Up

From Redump Wiki

Before we start dumping we must first setup our tools properly.

Exact Audio Copy

• Start EAC;
• Cancel the configuration wizard (if there is one);
• Select the drive you want to use for ripping in the combobox;
• Open the EAC Options (EAC → EAC Options or press F9);
• Select the “Tools” tab and make sure 'activate beginner mode' is disabled;
• Select the “Extraction” tab. For “Error recovery quality” choose High;
• Also in the “Extraction” tab, disable “No use of NULL samples for CRC calculations”;
• Open the compression options (EAC → Compression Options or press F11);
• Select the “Waveform” tab. For “Wave format” choose “Microsoft PCM Convertor”;
• For “Sample format”, make sure that “44,100 kHz; 16 Bit; Stereo” is selected;
• In the same tab, make sure that “Do not write WAV header to file” is checked;
• Also make sure that “High quality (slow) is selected”;
• In the “File extension for headerless files” box, enter “.bin”;
• Open the drive options (EAC → Drive Options or press F10);
• Select the first tab (“Extraction Method”) and click on “Detect Read Features”;
• EAC should now start detecting the features of your drive;
• Select “Secure Mode” (on the same tab);
• Click on the tab “Gap Detection” and set the detection accuracy to “Secure”;
• Set the Gap/Index retrival method to “Method A”. If you have problems detecting the gap, try changing to B or C (see “Ripping the audio tracks”);
• Change to the “Offset / Speed” tab and enable “overread into lead-in and lead-out”;
• Look up the read offset value of your drive in the Accuraterip database;
• Write down the value for your drive, as we will use it later on in the guide.
