You mean an Adaptec controller, right? Yes, I guess Adaptec did buy those guys. Try tosha or cdda2wav and report back on whether or not it works. dd has never been a supported way to read audio tracks, for the reasons outlined above. It may be possible in some situations, but it was

I think what is actually going on is that it doesn't like the 0x82 density code that most other drives use. So that's what the first error message likely tells us. (the density is given in the mode select parameter list, thus the invalid field) The second error message likely means that
