Introduction

CDSampler allows you to sample data directly from a standard audio CD in a similar way to reading data off a CDROM without the use of any of the normal audio digitising hardware. It will transfer any section of a track from an audio CD to a hard disc, saving as raw data, a Microsoft WAVE file, an Acorn Replay file or an Armadeus file. The data is always saved in the original form, as stereo 16 bit linear signed samples at 44.1kHz (176 Kbytes per second), except for Armadeus format where the data is mixed down to mono 8 bit linear signed.

CDSampler saves data direct to hard disc or other filing system, allowing any length of track to be transferred (subject to available space).

Requirements

Supported CD-ROM drives

These are the drives currently recognised. This list is constantly growing so contact us for up to date information.

In many cases adding a new drive is as simple as updating a text file in CDSampler, if the protocol used is the same as one already supported. If the supplier of your CD driver supports the appropriate calls then CDSampler will work straight off with no configuration needed.

Ordering

CDSampler costs £25.00 + VAT + p&p.

Note

Most CD-DA material is copyright. The only exception is discs specifically created for sampling from. You may be infringing copyright if you sample other discs, especially if you distribute the results.
