A friend of mine made a mix a couple of years back wich I thought I would share on the board since I know some people would be happy for it. Thing is I dont know how to!

I'm no pc-wiz so im looking for an easy way to do it. Any software suggestions for the task?

I would have recommended the same. Once you installed the program and have the LAME encoder in place you can rip a CD to WAV or MP3 in your desired bitrate with 2 clicks only and even get a cuesheet if you like. Especially for mix CD's it is great to have an option to rip a CD that's cut in tracks though there are no breaks between tracks (continous mix) and choose between a rip separated in tracks or to rip the CD to one file. Great and free to use tool. I moved the Audio tools thread to this Forum because it makes probably more sense to have it here so you can check for other alternatives as well.

also another program thats free and easy to use is audiograbber. i've used it for years and still do. it also has a link to free db so if there is a tracklisting already it can be gotten automatically.

Totally for CDex here. Does all the work for you and uses LAME to encode. Previously I was ripping them, naming them the way I wanted them then encoding in LAME and then doing the tags myself... CDex - insert CD press one button... done.

Foolproof for the idiots, but massively flexible for the more advanced user.
