WINDOWS RIPPERS
Windows rippers have two things in
common. The first is their nice interface and the easiness of use. The second is the usage
of your CPU. It is always enough to slow down your computer so much that you don't want to
use it for anything else while ripping.

 |
|
| |
| OS |
Windows 95 & NT, IDE & SCSII drives. ASPI mode
only. |
| Distribution |
Shareware (some limitations but works fine) |
| Pros |
The most popular Windows ripper. Works both IDE &
SCSII drives and has an easy to use interface. It does not support MSCDEX mode. Jitter
correction and usually it rips without any problems. It can be used as Fraunhopher's CODEC
front end, which means that it can rip and encode in one step. (CODEC not included in
WinDac) |
| Cons |
Does not support MSCDEX mode. |

| OS |
Windows 95 & NT, IDE & SCSII drives. ASPI and
MSCDEX support. |
| Distribution |
Shareware. Free version lets you rip only half of the
tracks. The tracks you can rip, are changing every time you restart AG. |
| Pros |
Excellent interface, very easy to use and very
nice.Normalization support, CD player .ini and CDDB (CD database) support. Best of all, it
can be used as a front end for Fraunhopher's CODEC, L3Enc and any encoder that can accept
command line arguments. If you don't have much free disk space but you want to rip an
entire CD while your away, Audiograbber is the program for you. |
| Cons |
Using many CPU resources and slows down the computer while
ripping. |

| OS |
Windows 95 & NT. IDE & SCSII drives through ASPI
interface. |
| Distribution |
Shareware. |
| Pros |
Easy to use. It can normalize the sound level.Supports CD
ini and CDDB for automatic ID3 editing and can auto retrieve lyrics. It can be used as a
Fraunhopher's CODEC front end. |
| Cons |
The interface needs a little work. |
|
| CDDA 32 v1.0 |

| OS |
Windows 95 & NT under a DOS box. IDE & SCSII
drives. ASPI and MSCDEX support. |
| Distribution |
Shareware. Allows you to grab only the first 5 tracks. |
| Pros |
Features jitter correction, and generally it is reliable
program. Apart from ASPI mode, it works in MSCDEX only mode. It can be used with CDDAfe, a
CDDA and L3Enc or MP3 Compressor front end. It can also encode to real audio format. |
| Cons |
Command line interface, without the benefits of the DOS
rippers. I like more CDDA 1.7 |
|
DOS ONLY RIPPERS
DOS rippers are bypassing windows CD ROM drivers and are
working fine in computers that all the windows rippers fail. They are also very small
programs that use very little of your computer resources.
|
 |
|
| |
| OS |
MS DOS mode, but it runs and in a DOS box. SCSII and IDE
drives. ASPI and MSCDEX support. |
| Distribution |
Shareware. Some small limitations. |
| Pros |
Very small, very efficient, low CPU usage. You can rip and
still use your computer. Very useful for CD ROM drives that refuse to work under windows.
It can bypass many drivers and make CD ROMs, that failed with all the other rippers, work.
If it works for you in DOS, try it under Windows. If it works and there then download CDDAfe. and you will love this combination. |
| Cons |
Command line interface. |
