[QUOTE="chrisc, post: 938392, member: 746"] A SONY PS-3 was the first way to rip a SACD disc. It needed some minor mods. The PS3 would produce an ISO file which then needed further (manual) processing to create tracks. An annoyance was that you had to rely on the timings on the cover to separate the tracks. Now and then, these were incorrect TRAX, an iOS app, gets the meta-data from various internet databases and automates the writing part of the operation far more effectively, gets artwork and allows you to edit the info in the same way that dbPoweramp does DSF files are enormous and IMHO are (mostly) only slightly different from 24 bit 96 kHz FLAC files A good test track is Private Investigations from the Dire Straits album first released on LP. The SACD version was made from a tape copy. A significant improvement over the CD copy, which sounds flat and lifeless [/QUOTE]
