Either I am very unlucky or I do not understand what is going on:
- I have a .wav file (a stereo wave file created by Cubase)
- I use ImgBurn to create a CUE file and than burn the CUE file to a CD (Philips)
- I than play the CD and it sounds very different from when I play the WAVE file (using the same software: VLC)
I tried doing the same on another computer (with the latest ImgBurn):
- move WAVE file from PC A to PC B
- test the WAVE file (sounded good)
- burn (using the same steps: tools, CUE, burn)
The quality is bad/malformed. So I reimported (using iTunes) the bad track from the CD, created a playlist in iTunes with both the imported bad track and the original (good) WAVE file. Used iTunes to burn an audio CD, put that CD in a normal CD player and it had 1 good sounding track and 1 bad.
Took a nap, tried again (this time I burned the a different .wav file recreated with Cubase with both ImgBurn and Nero), same result: ImgBurn mangled the sound, Nero did it right.
