RE: Looking for An Accessible CD Ripper
Try: http://www.poikosoft.com/ Easy audio converter is the current name for the old Easy CDDA extractor. However, it does much more than the old program. Be warned, though, it is quite accessible but it does have its idiosyncrasies that can be overcome with some experimentation.

RE: Looking for An Accessible CD Ripper
Hi, I have always used CDEX however 1.79 went nuts on me with the install of windows 10. I understand that many programs need to be installed again after installing windows 10. However, I cannot find my copy of CDEX 1.79 on any of my machines or my three external HD backup drives. So the question of the day is what is working best as a CD ripper for those who have updated to windows 10? My CDEX 1.79 is ripping ok as long as I don't try to do anything in Options which is not acceptable. Also I have tried all the google links for 1.79 and I cannot download any of them. Even if someone sends me the file it seems to choke on my machine.

Re: Looking for An Accessible CD Ripper
One reason for a profile that I can think of is how you want the program to handle track titles. For example, for a single artist CD I don't want the artist's name to appear in the title of every track. However, for a various artists compilation, of which I have quite a lot, I do want the name of the artist to appear in each track title. That's just a small example. There may be other reasons to have profiles, but I can't think of any right off the bat.

The first one said the page could not be displayed, the second and third had download links, but nothing happened when I hit them. One even said my program was downloading, but my IE11 didn’t download anything. Finally, I downloaded the file and tried to install it. It wanted to install three third party programs, AdAware, Tune Up Utilities, and (I think) Pluto TV. My Window Eyes 8.4 could find no check boxes to select whether to not install these, so I just clicked Next and figured I’d uninstall them after I got CDEX successfully installed. However, when I hit Next after Pluto TV came up, it asked me to select an option and an Okay button came up. I reached an impasse at that point, since I couldn’t see how to select the option. So that was the end of trying to install CDEX. Then I tried VLC Media Player. Installing that was easy. Then I brought up the instructions on how to rip CDs with it that Dane so thoughtfully provided a while back. However, not all those controls in setting up the ripping process are accessible for me with Window Eyes 8.4. For example, I cannot check the CD check box. It just won’t change from Unchecked no matter how many times I hit the space bar. I can’t even get it to play a CD that’s in the tray. I know it plays because I can bring up Winamp and play it. The problem with Winamp of course is that it doesn’t know what it’s playing anymore, so I’m trying to find a ripper that knows the tracks. I looked up Exact Audio Copy, but it looks intimidatingly complicated to me frankly. So, anybody got any suggestions for an ACCESSIBLE ripper that I can try that’s not overly complex, but that will produce reasonably good results. I’d really appreciate some advice. Oh, how I miss being able to do the job with Winamp! Evan
Re: Looking for An Accessible CD Ripper
Hey thanks for that. I didn't think of looking at NCH Software, even though I have, and really like, their Switch Audio Converter. And it is completely accessible and fast as well. I've got EZ CD Converter installed here and working well, but I am still going to take a look at Express Burn, if only because I was so impressed with Switch. Thanks.

Re: Looking for An Accessible CD Ripper
Is this a Poikosoft product, that is entirely accessible? Has not been my experience in the past. Of course, you said you were using Window Eyes, weren't you? I only have Jaws versions 14 and 15 running on a Windows 7 64 bit desktop. Enlighten me, please?

It is indeed easy to install, and easy to set up. It's completely accessible. I just ripped my third CD with it. Well, my fourth actually. I had to rip the first one twice because I didn't have the filename and folder settings right the first time. It works fantastically. Thanks for the great help.
