Bin bestanden

Bin bestanden zijn over het algemeen vergezeld van .cue bestanden, en de combinatie maakt de image van een cd. Zo'n image kun je daarna "inladen" met speciale software die Windows voor de gek houdt en hem laat zien als cd-rom.
Optie 1: Deamon Tools (of Daemon Tools) is het gratis alternatief. Het kan vrijwel alle image-typen aan en is redelijk simpel in gebruik. Installeer Daemon Tools, start opnieuw op, rechtermuisklik op icoontje, selecteer "Mount Image" o.i.d. en selecteer de .cue
Optie 2: Alcohol 120% is het betaalde alternatief. Hiermee kun je meer dan alleen images mounten, je kunt ze ook maken en branden. Alcohol kan zelfs werkende images maken van beveiligde cd's (maar niet alle). Het is heel gebruiksvriendelijk, gewoon .cue bestand selecteren, rechtermuisklik, selecteer "Image invoeren"

Sounds from any source

While Audacity is a great audio editing utility with the ability to record sounds and edit them afterwards it still felt a little bit overweight for the mere task of recording sounds fast on a computer. I found a freeware utility that can record sounds from any incoming source in various formats including ogg vorbis, monkey audio, mp3 and acm.

The best feature of Harddisk Ogg is that it sits in the tray once configured and you can start the recording with a single mouse click and end it with another one. The quality of the recorded audio can be configured in detail including bitrate, mono or stereo recording and encoding quality.
Harddisk Ogg offers several normalization modes that amplify the input signal to a constant volume. You need to download and move the lame encoder into the folder of Harddisk Ogg to be able to record mp3 files directly.
I would like to explain why a tool like Harddisk Ogg might be useful now or in the near future. Several countries have already laws in place that make it illegal to copy music from Cd’s if the CD is copy protected. They still allow however to record the songs using audio devices and compare this to the recording of radio with audio tapes.
This is also great if you want to rip audio from music videos that you found on the internet or from youtube videos.
