So i wonder what is the definite tool to check an Audio CD for Errors? [Yes, i know it is not an Ardour DAW Task, but i tried in several Forums and astoundingly nobody knew anything about this subject, so i thought the right place might be here, as the final production step for many Ardour-Users will be burning a Master CD and then somehow verifying if it's Error-Free] [I tried in english here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7075466 and over here in german http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/wie-kann-man-eine-audio-cd-auf-fehler-ueberpr/ - if i get an a satisfying answer somewhere i'll update all postings] So, any suggestions?

What a strange company windows error checking - they make the #1 rated drive by CDfreaks and then pull the product...weird. So I need to buy a higher quality burner because it makes me nervous using the one that I've got, not that it's shown any problems, but just for peace of mind. What are the top drives available for burning master cds besides the plextors? Also, what are good programs for checking to see if your master cd is high enough quality? Thanks in advance.

I understand that there are still a few 755 drives around if you look very carefully. The reason for Plextor discontinuing these drives was out of Plextor's control and involved a complex relationship between a number of different optical drive manufacturers. If you are prepared to use non-supported software then Lite-On drives are supported by their K-probe software and Nero's CDSpeed will also show error information for certain drives (but I'm not sure which ones).

To determine how well a media perform, a battery of tests must be performed. Burn quality problems are almost always the fault of the media itself or the burner/firmware being used. As delicate as optical media can be, scratches and abuse are not the most common reason for bad media. Be sure to read the other media guides and reviews to better understand the DVD format and blank discs.

Why Do Discs Go Bad? To understand why a disc goes bad, it helps to understand how a disc is made. CD, DVD and Blu-ray media are created in an interesting manner! Note that this is a basic description: First, dye is poured onto the molded plastic (polycarbonate) bottom of a disc, and then spun at high speed to spread the dye evenly (or so you hope). Note: Since there is no dye in a pressed disc, this step does not apply to pressed media. Next the foil reflective is added (so the laser has something to bounce off of when
