What is CD Audio Dump?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CD Audio Dump/2 is an application to copy CD Digital Audio tracks to your
hard disk. The tracks are copied over the data bus without a roundabout
route over a sound card. There is also no need for any multimedia support
from MMPM/2.
The program was originally written for compiling some new audio discs from
existing discs for my own use.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
System requirements
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Software:
Operating system IBM OS/2 v2.1 or higher
No MMPM/2 needed
Hardware:
CD drive which supports audio playback and direct reading over the data bus.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please use the installation program to install or remove CD Audio Dump/2.
