■Some CD-ROMs will not allow direct copying to the CD-Writer Plus drive or are not capable of digital audio extraction.

■You must have either a SCSI 2 CD-ROM drive (see the drive’s guide for information) or a supported ATAPI CD-ROM drive to use as your source.

■Some CDs have a copy prevention feature or other features that do not allow a CD-to-CD copy.

■Make sure that you do not have a sound-muting feature turned on by way of the monitor or software.

■Check the sound from the CD-Writer Plus drive by plugging earphones or speakers to the audio connector on the front of the CD- Writer Plus drive. If the sound quality is good, the problem is probably with the sound board, speakers, or audio cable. See the documentation that came with your sound board and speakers for help.

■Try listening to the wave files on your hard drive to see if they sounded poor before copying them to CD. (You can use the Media Player program found under Multimedia in Windows’ Accessories.)
