I just got a NeXTstation and a CD rom (not 3.0 yet) and am a little
confused.  Now the CD Drive has the headphone jacks etc on the front
and I got the PD CDPlayer program so that works fine.  That's about
all I've been able to do.  My questions are:

1) Why is this not part of the OS?  Is it in 3.0?

2) Am I missing something or is there like basically no doc on CD Drives?
  I can't find anything (at all!) in the manuals that even mentions 'CD'
  The manual that came with the drive is pretty much useless.

3) Following the manual's instructions I inserted a High
  Sierra or ISO CD and contrary to the manual, I did not in fact get
  either an error message or a NEXTDISC appearing in my dock. Is there
  some other magic I must do?

4) The most important question of them all.  How do I pump the data
  from music CDs through the DSP?  Actually, for now, I'd be happy to
  just get a regular program to process it.

I'd really appreciate any info.  Email is best.  I'll post a summary
if reasonable.
