"Has The Lesson ever spoke about pregap hidden tracks?"
So I just found out that a cd I have owned for 10 years now has a pregap bonus track. Blur's Think Tank album has a song called "Me, White Noise" that is hidden prior to the first track on the album "Ambulance". However, it is next to impossible for me to get it ripped to my computer. I have tried using EAC (Exact Audio Copy) but no go. Anybody had luck ripping these kinds of tracks?

... trying to que up the tape to record it to cassette or something of that nature and I stumbled upon it, bugged me the fuck out. Years later I told my girl about it and he didn't believe me, tripped her the fuck out. I would like to know how one can do this while burning their own musical project. Anyone wanna point me in the right direction?
To rip a zero track in Exact Audio Copy (EAC): After opening EAC and inserting the disc, your first track should show up in red and the starting time for track one will not be 00:00. Select "Action" then "Detect Gaps" (this will take a minute). After it has finished, your first track will still display in red text, but the starting time should now be 00:00. This appends the zero track to track one, but if you rip to wav, you can then put the track into Audacity and split it into two tracks that way. Put the tracks into whatever you use to rip mp3s and you're good to go.

Thanks for this. I'll give it a go.
