By the way. It's a Lite-On external DVD/CD Rewriteable drive...
Maybe, a CDRW only drive, would be a better match. I don't know if it's possible to find such though.

Are you sure you’re burning an AUDIO CD and not a DATA CD.
There's an entire mode for burning AUDIO CD's in Disk Mode. You insert tracks (wave files) to a table.

Re: External CD Rom Issues
I was curious so I took a recommended drive" Samsung SE-208 and tried to write wave files to CD with Kronos; no luck, result was a few seconds of audio.Oboemd wrote:Did you ever find a solution?matthewmb wrote:I am trying to "create a cd" .

Mounted same drive to Oasys, same result. Then I used Oasy to write waves to CD using the Oasys' internal drive, no problem.
This leads me to believe it's a problem with writing to specific external drives, (even though there may be no problem reading from the drive). It may even be a write speed problem.
We definitely need a list of drives that are "fully compatible".

I tried another DVD writer, the ASUS SDRW-08D2S-U.Oboemd wrote:I was curious so I took a recommended drive" Samsung SE-208 and tried to write wave files to CD with Kronos; no luck, result was a few seconds of audio.Oboemd wrote:Did you ever find a solution?matthewmb wrote:I am trying to "create a cd" .

I had NO difficulty writing wave files to CD with this previously recommended
drive. It was available at Newegg.
You should add every working external drive to the sticky post: USB Controllers confirmed to work.

I bought the liteon enau108 and i was able to record to it, but only 4 seconds, as well.
i did the research and i am having troubles finding out how to get it to burn the full song and not just 4 seconds. i read mention of that, but i can't find it in the manual or online.
I add the track to the Audio CD tracklist to have it burned on there and it shows up the appropriate length, but when it burns it i pop it into my cd player and also play from the Kronos, it only plays 4 seconds!

Same story as some of the others ... I've used TWO different drives with identical results ... first 4 seconds of each track and then nothing. I even bought the Asus drive that another member reported as working, and it also fails. The WAV files are normal length, and I can easily copy those over to a thumb drive and write using Itunes, but that sucks. I've also tried using "music" CDs, etc, and absolutely no luck. Different cables, and no luck. If anyone would like a stack of about 25 CD-ROMS with several tracks of crappy home-made dance music consisting of 4 seconds per track, let me know
