It discards anything the drive doesn't need (like tags and headers on WAV files). cue file, but different format) and 'get ready to write the whole disc's-worth of audio data I'm about to send.' During the burn, the software reads the audio file(s) and sends just the raw audio data to the drive. So, the burning software sends the drive commands along the lines of 'here's a cue sheet' (same info as in the.

The spiral on a full CD contains over 2 GB of data, about 30% of which is the audio the rest is time code, error correction, etc.

Your burning software is just using the audio files as input to feed to the drive, which knows how to convert that data to the spiral's complex format and write it into the blank CD-R's spiral. An audio CD doesn't actually have files and folders, just a very long, tight spiral that reflects laser light in variable amounts. Just to help you understand a little better, you're not really 'burning FLAC files' or 'burning WAV files'-or any files, really-to the CD. Yeah, EAC is a fancy piece of software with a lot of great features and a very nice price, but using FLAC files as input for burning is not one of the developer's priorities. If I were you, I would use CUETools, point it to the existing cue sheet, and do an Encode to make it be a WAV image+cue. If using a cue sheet, the cue sheet must refer to these files by their exact file names. Also it will sound too 'bright' if the cue sheet had FLAGS PRE in it but you didn't use the cue sheet when burning.Д®AC can only burn from WAV files. If you have the tracks in separate files, you can burn without the cue sheet, but you lose the sub-track info. If the cue sheet contains title or performer metadata, this will be burned onto the disc, and maybe read by some CD players. It also contains sub-track boundaries (indexes), which include index 00 (the 'pre-gap' or 'gap') which is the usually-silent part of a track where a real CD player's display advances the track number and starts counting up the time to zero, like -0:03, -0:02, -0:01, 0:00.

It's just a text file which holds non-audio info like track boundaries, as well as which file(s) contain the audio.

cue file when burning that's what the file is for. It is the result of checking to see whether the audio matches other people's rips in the AccurateRip database, maybe also the CUETools database (CTDB).Д®AC can use the.
