Fernando Gregoire Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hi! Although I usually only use GoldWave for audio editing, I recently tried its CD Reader feature to rip audio CDs. It offers more control of the process compared to other softwares like Nero Burning ROM's Save Tracks feature, Windows Media Player or Winamp. However, I have a question about the reading options: While most programs allow the user to select the speed measured in X, GoldWave only accepts values in KB/S. When I go to Storage\Optical Drives page in AIDA64, the speeds both for reading and writing are given in X. What calculation should I make to get an aproximate value for the X speed in KB/S? I think there is a rule of three whose unit (such as 1024 for measuring memory) I'm missing. Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 For CDs 1x = 153 kiloBytes/sec. You can also refer to this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD_and_DVD_writing_speed Regards, Fiery 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
