Oddity Archive: Episode 287.2 – Ben’s (Failed) Gimmick CD (A Rant)
🕑 Added 2025-01-08 15:08:52 +0000 UTCWell, this WAS supposed to be the first Ben's Junk of 2025, but, as I discuss early in this video, I was missing some parts, so that's on the backburner for now.
Anyway, as a quick alternative (hot off the presses last night), here's a totally loose discussion on how the OA Soundtrack album (specifically the CD issue) was supposed to double as a technical reference disc of sorts...and it didn't happen. FAIR WARNING: Tons of audio jargon in this one.
Next week will mark the first Ben's Junk of the year, but will not be the one that had to go on hold. Hoping (but not guaranteeing) the first regular OA episode of the year will be the final week of January.

Yes. As far as I know, there have been no further CD Architect updates since then.

Are you using CD architect 5.2 from Sony? That is what I use for authoring cds. I never used the pregap for anything on purpose, but I did by mistake. It did not burn correctly and the program said I could not burn it like that. I tried anyway but could not get it to play. This was intriguing to say the least this week. I cannot believe no one would make the cds without it being red book compliant completely? I liked this episode. Now I have a song to finish mixing.
