HOW TO TURN A 15 YEARS OLD CD ROM INTO A MUSIC PLAYER 

I already did that 22 years ago! Nothing new for me but for young people it is a good training about how to reuse old PC's devices.

A friend once added a cd player into his car stereo using the same way. He simply added a car cassette adapter to connect the CD ROM to the head unit. It sounded good. Believe it or not, CD ROMs already have built-in shock protection. The CD ROM didn't skip at all during driving.

My friend did something similar at the 2000-s. He took his computer CD drive into the car, plug it to self made amplifier and used soviet speaker, that was hided under seat. That was funny)

Bu tarz dönüşümleri daha çok istiyoruz abi eline sağlık

Congratulations ! You have given new life to an object that can still function and give enjoy, in this case, offering music ...(with a cup of TV speaker) It is a no little thing in a hyper- technological and very noisy world ....long life to Recycling !!! Tks for sharing and HNLife . Ciao Nicola from IT

20 years ago, a guy in our college did pretty much the same thing. Only without the amplifier Alexey really wanted a CD-player. But he didn't have it. There was a CD-ROM and a great desire to listen to music)))

There was a time when I was young and didn't have money to get decent hi-fi stuff, but friend gave me CD-ROM drive and PC power supply which I hooked up to my old amplifier and DIY open baffle speakers and when I turned it on and it started playing, my joy was infinite. I haven't heard anything better. And now, when I have really advanced stereo system, I still keep in my heart a warm feeling to those shit and sticks setup.

Muito legal, da hora mesmo, parabéns! Será que consegue aqui passar modelos dos.componentes que usou e descrever um pouco como fez? Se puder agradeço! Muito obrigado, abraços

Muito show de bola Mestre, Deus te abençoe dando muito saúde e paz, sucesso sempre Mestre em nome de Jesus Cristo!!🙏🏿🙏🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🤝🤝

Гениально !!!! Это просто ГЕНИАЛЬНО!!!! Никто не знал эту особенность CD привода, как я раньше жил без этого????))))))))))))))))))))))

neredeyse tüm videolarınızı izledim bu tür geri dönüşümleri daha çok yaparsanız çok sevinirim

This is cool. We need more cd players with flip phone quality speakers.

In 2002, while working in Photoshop, I listened to music on CD in this way without spending the resources of a computer that is weak by today's standards.

It is possible to recycle more old things for this purpose, without additional electronics and soldering. Just insert the JACK from your old active computer speakers into the front panel and power the drive with an unused ATX power supply from the old computer (it is necessary to interconnect the black and green wires on the largest connector, which was originally in the board).

King Zafer. You are too good. God richly guide and blesse you. Long live my brother.

Bu yaptigin 2004 yilinda yapmistim ben😊 emegine saglik ...

Funny thing is, you don't need little crappy speakers for something like this. You can hook up the outputs to standard stereo speakers and sound AND VOLUME will be amazing. I had a crappy little mono radio with absolutely pitiful volume even when cranked up to the point of distortion. Just for s&g, I connected it to one of my home speakers, and quality was passable, but volume was impressive, definitely some good thump going on. So you can "repurpose" working speakers from an old busted stereo, and it'll sound fantastic, all with nothing but "junk parts" powering it.

looks like u did a lot more to it than what i did (years ago). I had a broken, obsolete computer with a cd-drive in it, and just disconnected everything else, leaving only the power supply and CD connected. Plugged a pair of PC speakers into the CD's earphone hole, hit the power button, pressed the "play/next" button on the CD and it started playing music

Sorry @Zafer, I have one question, when u melted the three pins when u show L G and R for the ground the that central pins are melted together or only the 2nd (from the left).

Выход надо с гнезда наушников взять,тогда и громкость регулировать можно

That is such a brilliant idea. I don't have a CD player in my car and would just like to change a CD now and again without hunting through a load of files on a Memory Stick. Now to find a 5Volt regulator, all I will need to do with the audio is to feed it into a USB plug. Why did I not think of doing this two years ago instead of getting annoyed not having a CD player. You are a genius, thank-you for so good an idea 😎

I did this many years ago with an old CD drive and computer power supply. Had to attach a broken hard disk to the PSU as well to provide some load and prevent it shutting off, but I could then play music CDs through the headphone socket! I was kinda hoping you would rig up some additional controls to skip tracks, rewind, pause and possibly even see whereabouts you are on the disc.

Tenho alguns pontos a acrescentar, 1. o coreto seria ligar o novo amplificador na saída dos fones ou só usar o potenciômetro pra regular dependendo do esquema elétrico, 2 o amplificador que pode vir a esquentar e está em cima do processador E eu também já fiz vários na época que não era acessível ter um toda CD automotivo e residencial também, reciclava e usava aqueles que não lia mais CD-Rom, e já usei os mesmos princípios para os MP3 e agora para os bluetooth em qualquer tipo de aparelhos

It's important to remember that this will only for work for WAV files (which store /uncompressed/ audio in LPCM encoding) and similar. This works great for commercial audio CDs, but will not work with MP3 files, etc. And there also certain CD drives with more buttons such that there are separate forward and back buttons as well as possibly pause functionality.

Олды и так знали про эту возможность cd ,а новому поколению это не нужно, так как они уже не факт что смогут диск с музыкой найти и уж темболее дисковод)))

От такой музыки плакать хочется, для неё даже паяльник влом греть.

*USO ISSO FAZ UNS 17 ANOS. TENHO UM CD ROM LG FABRICADO EM DEZEMBRO DE 2004. COMPRADO NOVO. E UM CD ROM CREATIVE COM CONTROLE REMOTO. FABRICADO EM JUNHO DE 1997. ESSE GANHEI DO MEU IRMÃO. É UMA BELEZA PARA OUVIR MÚSICAS. OUÇO MÚSICAS SOMENTE NOS FONES DE OUVIDOS.*

Muy práctico! por cierto, una de las tensiones (5 ó 12v), no recuerdo bien, sobra. Una de ellas alimenta el sistema básico de los motores y el otro lo relacionado con las señales de audio o datos enviada por el PC, pero como no hay PC, no hay transmisión de datos que gestionar. No lo recuerdo porque han pasado más de 15 años y eso apenas se ha conocido..... pero con una sola de las tensiones de alimentación ya bastaba (menos energía que entregar al lector de CD, y por consiguiente, con un simple adaptador de teléfono móvil ya funciona.

Güzel çalışma olmuş elinize emeğinize sağlık

Actually better made cd mechanism than many high end CD players.

Very nice work. It's awesome to see someone do this for real vs the stupid fake videos out there.

В оригинале все же было КД-ПЗУ (компакт диск - постоянное запоминающее устройство) (с) журнал микропроцессорные средства и системы. Там же был и ВАХ УНИХ и популярный язык Васик.

Muito Show , ficou brabo esse som adorei...

If you take te low level output from audio-jack can set the volume from potentiometer in front the reader.

Amazing project ☺️

Parabéns pelo trabalho

Güzel Bir Sistem Olmuş, Emeğinize Sağlık Usta.

ses gayetde guzel oldu tebrikler teşekkürler

Muito show ficou muito bom 👏

Fajnie by było zmierzyć pobór prądu na samych słuchawkach i ewentualnie ze wzmacniaczem z głośnikami. Trzeba by jeszcze wymyślić regulację głośności głośników, może inny moduł.

the yellow wire on the 5v pin of that gizmo had me worried :p ...otherwise, great quick solution to bang some tunes on real quick ...even to rip audio off an awkward CD and feed it over to some wav recording device... - I have many custom cables that just plug direct to that audio jack and connect to old HI-FI seperate amps...

Un cd rom ya es un reproductor sin hacerle ninguna modificacion. le conectas atras unos altavoces amplificados y listo. Eso si, debes poner audio wav. De haberle hecho una modificacion, sería buena añadirle un modulo mp3 y otro de bluetouth. Por eso si seria buena la modificacion por lo demas no merece la pena y solo es un gasto de estaño y tiempo.

I bet you a whole dollar that my Ultrasone Pro 900s and Denon D9200s would rock on the drive.👍

I'm glad I wasn't expecting the unexpected, or something amazing. I would have been sorely disappointed. But hey, nice Walkman. I hope you have big pockets.

Sería interesante que explicase pasó por pasó, y además de a conocer los elementos utilizados, con así también la plaqueta que utiliza en la parte de atrás del cd room. Gracias.

Cuál es el tester que utilizas para medir la corriente?

Zafer hocam bayramınız kutlu olsun.

Nice video, thank you :)

Çok güzel bir mühendislik örneği. Eline sağlık.

Elimde creative'ın kumandalı model cd romu var. Mutlaka hatırlayanlar vardır. Yıllar önce bu şekilde amfiye bağlamışım. Ses kalitesi gerçekten çok iyiydi. Hala saklarım bir kenarda bir gün kullanırım diye. Elinize sağlık güzel video olmuş.

How much did you supply the 5v and 12v mounting? PC source?

dżast emejzing ;p gdzieś mam jeszcze "mini wieżę" którą zrobiłem z takiego napędu i radia samochodowego, wtedy nie było chińskich miniaturowych wzmacniaczy, z resztą chodziło o to, żeby zrobić coś z niczego bez wydania ani złotówy :-)

Bu sistemlerini 2000 li yılların başında yapmıştım. 7805 ent. Kullamıştım. Hatta arkadaşımın arabasına monte etmiştim. Line outtan ses cıkışını mevcut olan ses sisteminin girişine bağlıyordum. Gümbür gümbür çalıyordu. 20 sene geçti. 🙂

Neat little project, but as a CD player it would be pretty impractical since it lacks basic functions you would expect from one (track skip in particular)

Se todos fizessem vídeos bons assim o RU-vid seria um lugar melhor

Good idea. I am going to try this later!

Is there any circuit to get constant rca jacked output from stereo cassette player that is independant of volume control? If yes than please make one also from where that output to pull out off the circuit for amplification and recording...

Very amazing bro...good job

Good idea, i have an old cd drive, i'll try to make it....

please could you tell me what the circuit board is with m103 on it. the one you connected to the power lead at the start of the video thanks j.jones

Not all cdroms have a play button. I have many IDE and scsi units that have headphone jacks but require software to play. Some older plexstor units haveeve more controls to skip forward and back by tracks

And a dvd room? , great job. Tanks.

C'est cool. Juste une question : pourquoi ne pas brancher les enceintes directement sur la sortie casque?

This is nothing new. My friend and I did this with an old 2 speed or 4 speed CD-ROM drive by adding shock mount feet and cabling it into one of those cassette devices that plug into 3.5mm jack socket around the mid to late 1990s. It was great as a CD player in a car that only had a cassette radio. Worked an absolute treat. It even had a small control box that could sit near the driver that allowed at the press of a button to move to the next track.

Imprecionante .. ¿ mini boards (2 × ) .. Which boards do you use ..and ; diagram is needed for cable installation ... ¿¿??

تسلم ايدك الله ينور عليك

Good video. I am very happy that this is not a fake one. :)

Super! I wish everyone a happy holiday in strength and health! Have a nice day! 🌲🎁👍🍀🇭🇺🌞☝️🎉✴️

Excelent idea 👍

what are those round things with a hole in them and where did you get them

Excellent brother go on.

super util... sobre todo en esta epocas en q los cds estan en su apogeo maximo.... (?

Hi bro, nowadays all cd roms have no more headphones jack. Can you modified it from the data pin???

müzik ileri geri pause gibi bir modül de eklenirse on numara müzik çalar olur. 👌

помню лет 25 назад тоже использовал сд привод как плеер. только питание давал с блока питания компа и подключал к акустике👍

Какая классная, нафиг не нужная штука))) 👍👍👍

Как раз 15 лет назад в школе училку таким девайсом удивлял 😄

Pam8403 new to me, nice application Wonder what DAC chip these Cd ROM drives use for the front headphone and rear analog outputs. Also, many drives like this have a digital spdif 2pin output next to the 4pin analog output on the back. Be cool to internally mount a better DAC board plus the pam8403, then use a power bank to power it

👍👍👍👍 Bendede vardı Denedim oldu zafer abi USTASIN 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

A ideia é muito boa, mas infelizmente esse tipo de leitor de CD não lê outros formatos de música (cdi ou wave), como MP3, por exemplo.

Good job~! Can you make the CD-ROM send digital datum to a digital input line of an audio?

Sae pisan kang cd rom nu tos teu ka ange janten tiasa di pungsikeun dwui👍

Я тоже так слушал музыку с дисков когда-то давно

ezt az idegesítő zene-bonát minek raktad alá? olyan idegesítő, hogy 2 perc után kikapcs

лайк за трудолюбие. а так то смысл мучить аппарат не понятно) сд он и так читает, можно просто к любому его усилку подцепить... что я раньше и делал...

Very Nice 👌

any CD-ROM has built in CD Audio player, but the project could be better if you have old Creative CD-ROM which came with IR remote. That CD-ROM is a masterpiece.

Nostalgia xdd hace como 25 años hice lo mismo y lo traía instalado en una combi XD con unas bocinas de 12" y un tda2009 xdddd El bafle servía así vez de asiento xdddd Que recuerdos, En esos años solo los vehículos traían cd era la novedad, Y los estereos carísimos para su tiempo xdddd Además traía una pulgada de esponja para efecto antirrebote xdddd Traía a pancho Barraza, y oldies abordo PD los 5vcd salían de un par de 7805 Unidos a la carcasa para disipar xddddd que recuerdos

bom dia seus projetos são ótimos excelente valeu

Vo tentar fazer um 👏👏👍

Emeğinize sağlık. Ben pikaplar için bir preampli yapımı videoyu beklemekteyim. 90 lardan buyana aux girişli cihazlar sebebiyle pikapları kullanamıyoruz :) Vakitlice bir çalışma bekleriz.

Eski bir aracın teyibine bağlamıştım 2000 yılların başında yolda dinlemek için. sadece Track formati cd ler çalışıyordu.

Granted, this is an informative video. However, I feel that you went through considerable trouble creating a small power supply and installing an IC audio amplifier within the CD-ROM player. I am certain that you are aware that by simply grounding the power-on wire (green wire) on the computer power supply will provide you with the +5 and +12 volts that is required, unless you were attempting to save space. Connecting the CD-ROM's audio output to any general purpose audio amplifier will do just as well. Again, your video is informative. Keep up the good work.

Nice work on cd rom

Well done 🥇

Good idea for good experiment

Sensacional!

Eu transformei um que nào tinha esse botões na frente , mas pra minha surpresa eu abri ele e na pla tinha as trilhas prontas pra colocar , soldei um plug p2 femea para fone e liga desliga e o volume , aí eu ligo o p2 dele no amplificado e fica show.

Тоже так делал, только немножко наоборот, 5 вольт у меня уже были из телефонной зарядки, а 12 получал повышающим преобразователем. Только вот есть один минус - трек назад никак не сделать, только вперёд.

Открытие века... Это уже 20 лет назад делали
