Spectrum Analyzer

Marcos · 21st June 2001, 15:59

I saw it somewhere yesterday and now I can't find it. I've tried every keyword I can think of but I cannot find it today. I saw a post or two regarding the very low peaking levels of the analyzer bars during CD playback. The bottoms are barely shooting up and the high-end is non-existent. Radio programs are OK. I have that new CDReader-thing installed and all is working. Any help much appreciated.

Thnx,
-Marc.

Try just clicking where it should be. Clicking there changes it from off to the spectrum analyzer, and if you click it again it switches it to the scope.

Neorenegade, I understand what you are saying. It is not the solution. However, I guess you did not understand my problem. I apologize, but, I do not know how to word it any other way. Thanks anyways. Anyone else?

Once the CD reader plugin is installed you should get the same response from plugins as you would when playing wav or mp3. Are you sure that you installed the plugin properly, and disabled the default plugin as the readme file says??

WinAmp is doing everything I'm expecting it to do save for this one area. MP3's and listening to radio stations are producing nice peaking bands across the entire spectrum. Only when I play CD's do these levels drop as previously described.

Are you sure that you installed the plugin properly,

After download I went to Start>Run> cliked browse, located the down-loaded file, cliked OK and the install wizard appeared and just followed standard wizard instructions. I don't recall anything odd. Is this not the proper way?

... and disabled the default plugin as the readme file says?

I added(re-named) ".off" to the following file names in the winamp plug-in directory

in_cdda.cdb.off
in_cdda.dll.off

I also am not getting any Spectrum Analyzer amplitude when playing CD's, but do for MP3's. Media Player and Sony Soundbar give me great analyzer output from a CD. I never saw any readme file mentioning disabling of old CD driver. So how do I get it working?

If you've installed CDReader . . .

C:\Program Files\Winamp\Plugins\CD Reader Documentation\readme.txt

This file should've automatically loaded at the end of the CDReader installation.

btw, Marcos has already shown you how to do it in his last post above.
