Hi
I have been into recording for a long time, and in a perfect setting =
with no burps of the software and with no quirks with the burner; speed =
should not matter much. In reality though you will get a more accurate =
copy with most drives at a slower speed. I routinely burn at 4X with no =
troubles.
The most important factor to consider is the blank you use. Unlike MD, =
CDR media has a wide range of quality and not all will even be =
recognized in a picky cd player. Look for blanks that are rated for 1X =
recording; a 1X-12X blank usually is an excellent choice. Watch out for =
2X-8X or 4X-12X as a lot of these will have problems playing in some =
boom box's or automotive deck's. High quality gear will usually play =
and correct any flaws in the process but there are still many cheaper =
units out there giving problems with the lower quality blanks which are =
known to have error rates well above what the low end decks can correct.
For more information regarding quality blanks, visit my website at =
www.musicmixers.com/mall and click on the about CDR link.
