that is misleading. by "converting the tracks to .wav", i assume you mean
that the cd should be ripped to .wav files. but it sounds as if you're
saying that something would be gained by converting mp3's to wav's. THAT
wouldn't help anything.

no, winamp does the same thing: control your cd player. you can set it to
"sample" from the soundcard, but that just means that the oscilloscope
works from the cd-audio; the sounds coming out are the same as with the
windows cd player.
