have a masterlink by alesis, and my mastering engineer has one so I mean to bring him stuff on masterlink's cd24 format
playing out of the pc and recording onto masterlink using spdif is "ok" but Id like to do it the other way

alesis has a utility at http://alesis.com/downloads/software/ml9600/index.html
the cd24 iso builder

ok, so I had some wav files, and converted them to *.aiff using wavelab

when I try to load these into iso builder, it says file format not supported, even though they say *.aif

so, I load the wav's into sound forge 6 and convert them to *.aif

this time the iso builder accepts them and makes a iso

so far so good, and as they say " so what "

I open ahead nero and choose " burn image" and pick the iso

nero burns it and I stick it in the masterlink to test it

master link correctly identifies it as a 24 bit 48 k cd24

when it goes to play, HHHHIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS nothing but o dBFS on the meters and white noise or something

what gives ?
