Subject:Acidizing a CD track

I am using ACID Pro and I want to take an acapella track
from a non-acid CD in my CD-Rom drive and import it to acid
so that I could remix it.
I've gone through the internal help file and I've read the
manual, but I'm not finding instructions on how to do it.

I've placed the CD(and many oter ones) in the drive and
attempted to open it in Acid, but when i double click the
audio track folder, nothing happens(but the windows cd
player will play it).

Am I doing something wrong? Did I miss something? Do I need
some other software? The guy at Sam Ash said I wouldn't
need anything else to sample a cd track.

Please help.
Thanks,
John

You can either "rip" it or record it into the computer.

An Audio Ripper is a program that can read an audio cd track off the
cd and write it to a .wav file. AudioGrabber is one such program and
you can download a shareware/demo version off the internet.

Or, you could just record the track from a cd player into the
computer, in fact you can record it with Acid.
