I use Astarte CD-Copy 2.0 to extract any track from cd, weather it be data or audio. Once tracks are saved you then drag them on top of toast and it does the rest. This has a minor…

Toast 3.5 is not the latest version. An updater for version 3.5.5 is available on their website. If you have your manual for Toast, try looking at pgs. 149-153.

There are a couple of different command sets which CD-R drives use. The most standard one is the Multimedia Command Set (MMC). Another is a command set originated by JVC. With d…

Here is a possible work-around for you. Open Simple Text and select your audio files on the audio CD. The Open button will become Convert. Select Convert and it will give you vari…

I've been making audio compilations for years, and by far the best extraction software I've used is the Toast Audio Extractor program that comes with Toast itself. As much as I'd l…

I recently purchased a 4X/8X CDR from LaCie and included with the package was a floppy with software related to Teac drives. Check the LaCie site to see if it is offered as a downl…

Jamer... you have to close the disk from the Direct CD control panel before other computers can read it. Ohh and as for the Teac drivers those are only for the 4x8 drives... I ha…

Adaptec just released Toast 3.5.6 which includes support for the Teac CD-R56S. Go check it out.

For your convienience, here's the list from Toast's Read Me file detailing drives that do NOT support Toast's Direct Audio Copy Feature. This should help those folks looking to pur…

It appears that low end SCSI cards are in very short supply, as everyone is scrambling to get cards for their new G3s. Has anyone done thorough testing on multiple cards to see w…

I bought an Adaptec 2910 for Wintel and I put the driver of the 2906 in system folder. And now I have a low end card (SCSI 2) in my blue G3 for a reasonnable cost. I think the pric…

Wade, I have the same machine and the same problem. The problem is not as difficult as it may appear. I understand this problem affects only a percentage of mt 300s but you and i j…

Will the current G3's be upgradable to the G4 (when it comes out this summer)?, and will the rest of the architecture remain equal ie: system/memory bus speeds. I'd like to buy the…

It won't be possible! The G3 is related to the 603e, and the G4 will be "directly" related to the 604e. Similar to how the 68040 was with the 68LC040 that I have in my P640 with …

Smoke signals from different rumor sites within the past 2 or 3 months suggest that a pin compatible G4 may well be in the cards. However, Maxbus and AGP4x may be available on fir…

The current G3s will, in fact, be upgradeable to G4 processors. The first version of G4 will come in the same 360-pin BCA package, so yes it will be upgradeable. Remember that the …

mkbhatia is right. The presentation by Motorola explicitly states that the first version(s) of their G4 will be pin-compatible with G3s. The only minor quibble about mk's post was …
