90 minute CD-R?

Hey Guys,

I spent yesterday converting 6 cassette tapes to wav. format and I've got a bunch of 80 min cd-r disks. I can make a data disk so I can play them on my laptop, but I was wanting to play them in the Bronco, too. It's only one track per disk at about 550meg. Each one is about 88 minutes, so won't fit on the 80 minute disks and I haven't found any 90 minute disks locally, (anyone seen them at Circuit City or a place like?)

I was wondering if anyone has overburned a cd-r to 90 min. using XP.

You can overburn but it takes a special program. Also I've read if you do risk this, it could mess up your burner on your computer. I didn't want to risk it so I didn't do it. Why not just take out a song you don't like or something like that?

Make sure to read the fine print so you can check to see if your computer can use them.

I have a program that will get me up to 84 min., 59 sec., but I'd still have to cut 3 minutes. I found out Nero 6 can do it, but they don't have the shareware copy ready yet. I've been trying to shrink it down with my Cool Edit pro program and I'm getting there. I might have to end up buying on Ebay - thanks for the link! Wish their sample pack came with 6 CDs and not 5 and unfortunately, my drive isn't on their list. Might be worth a try.

These are learning tapes on cassette and I wanted to put them on CD. I copied them 1 track to 1 cassette, hoping I could just burn straight over. It would be nice to set everything on different tracks to label the sections...hmmm, 9 hour of audio editing, oh boy..

Lol sounds fun!

One thing you could do is compress the sound, where it plays a little faster but.. it would barely be audible. Take it from 88 minutes to 80. Then you can also take out tape hiss.
