How to read CD-DA on Mac with non-Apple CD-ROM drive?

How to read CD-DA on Mac with non-Apple CD-ROM drive?

Post by Brian Davil » Wed, 19 Jul 1995 04:00:00



I have heard that there is a way to record digital audio from a CD on a Mac
with an Apple CD, but I am having trouble using Premiere 4.0 to do the same
thing using a Toshiba CDE100 4x CD-R drive. It records for a few minutes and
then hangs the machine. I have a Quadra 950 with the drive on the external SCSI
bus, System 7.5 and very few extensions. (Yes, I have tried this with only the
CD extension)

Does anyone know if there is other software (pref. shareware or freeware) that
would allow me to do this? Or is there something I am doing wrong?

Please respond via email.

TIA,
Brian

You need QuickTime, Forign file Access, and Audio CD

In a movie playing application, open the file on the CD. QuickTime will
convert it.

It depends on whether your CDROM drive is "quicktime compatible".  IF
it is, you only need QuickTime 2.0, CDROM driver, Foreign File Access
and Audio CD Access.  with those extensions, run simpletext and try to
open the audio CD track.  a button labeled "convert" will appear.  use
it!

1. Question on running non-apple CD-ROM drives

I now have an Apple CD-ROM, but unfortunately, it is my companies CD-ROM, and
I have to return the silly thing.  I have access to CD-ROM drives for Sun Microsystems
SPARCstations, but I can't get my II to read the CD-ROM.  SCSI Probe sees the
drive, and will mount it.  The access light on the CD-ROM lights up, but the CD
never shows up on my desktop.  I have a 50hd to DB-25 cable, and have tried this
on both system 7.0.1 and 7.1.  Any ideas?  Do I need a driver for the CD-ROM drives
from Sun, as they are slightly different drives than the apple?  I was trying a
Sony CDU-8012, the other Sony CD-ROM is a CDU-561.  I think that the Apple CD-ROM
is a CDU-8003.  I think.

Thanks

John Donat
