Import Audio Cd Doesn't Acknowledge all CDs?

A Quick Update...
 
I have just found that two of thwe disks show in media player just fine, but when I look with windows explorer, only a movie file is visible on the disk...
 
Is this some kind of mixed media disk as opposed to standard audio CD?
 
If there isn't a way for Sonar or Windows itself to see the audio files, but media player can and does read the song list and play the songs....?
 
What gives?
 
Thanks...

Sounds like you may have vCD's--rare in the West but common in Asia. Windows Media Player will play them, but the audio is encoded differently than music CD's. If you can actually play (not just see) them in Media Player, then a loopback (virtual or physical) could record the audio, or you might be able to use something like Pazzera Free Audio Extractor.

Copy protected CD's are a thing.  Technically, they don't comply with the CD standard, but most stand-alone players can play them.

I've one CD that contains mixed media. Audio which works in any CD player plus video and photos that can be viewed in a PC. The video stuff uses a small application on the CD that's ignored by CD players.

It's one produced a quite a few years ago containing archived collected material concerning an English traditional musician. I tried importing the audio into whichever version of Windows Media Player was around at the time but no joy. Haven't tried in years though so maybe a more modern application could cope with it. I'd check only I'm away from home for a few days.

That format was once touted as the "great new multimedia thing" but never took off, at least in Europe and the Americas.

Hello,
 
This is the first time for me using this forum for asking questions.  I've just finished recording a radio show and discovered that after editing the show it sounds low in volume with lot's of static.  This is the first time this has happened to me.  I've tried listening to other shows I've recorded and the problem is happening there as well.  I use SONAR X3 and this is the first time I've had this problem.  Since I work for two different radio stations I'm always working to meet my deadlines.  Any help in resolving this problem will be of help.  Thanks mucho...
