Burn-Proof for master CDs???? -Sound Forge - PC - MAGIX Community Forums Archive

Fortunately my burners I use for CD duplication and mastering don't have "burn proof" technology, but my Laptop burner does. That's good information and makes total sense to me. Most duplication factories have CD analyzers which tell how many errors are on a CD. The more errors the harder it is for some CD players to read the disk, therefore you are running the risk of duplicating CD's which may not play in a lot of players. Thus, the reason for the duplicatin house to return your CD as being "defective" as stated in that article. I've run into this same type of problem using some brands of CDR's in the past. The amount of errors will vary drastically from brand to brand. One reason, I insist to my clients that they buy my supplied CDR's when creating a master disk which is being sent off to a duplication house......otherwise NO GUARANTEES. I usually, burn all my master cd's at 4x to avoid the buffer underun problems stated and higher error rates. Thanks for the tip!!
