/rcd0d -audio -pad Following-On_2.wav
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
cdrecord: Assuming -sao mode.

dependent defaults.

I dont ever remember this happening...
try "sox filename.mp3 -r 44100 -c 2 -b 16 filename.wav" before giving wav to cdrecord.
'man sox' describes reverse conversion, but gives parameters for cdda (compact disc digital audio)
