I got some truncated bits. Fortunately, this was just on one album. I think if I had used some other SW, I would have been fine. (I posted about this on the Music forum at the time it happened.)
Anyway, I now just play the WAV files back natively, keeping them away from iTunes. (It's really not necessary - and although iTunes will play back WAV files, I use HQ player for this purpose). I believe that although WAV and AIFF formats are roughly equivalent, AIFF does a better job with the meta data associated with the file(s).
I've read about that too about converting WAV to AIFF. But is that also the case when ripping CDs directly to WAV?
I've been ripping CDs to AIFF or ALAC from the beginning of time. ;-)
I never had a problem with ripping CDs to either.
I don't know, I've never tried it. I use AIFF.
iTunes does have a setting for ripping CD's to WAV so give it a try.
Preferences > General > Import Settings.
My Korg DAC won't read AIFF for some reason, so I use WAV.
Seems fine, but the Ayre Link said Aiff was the way to go, didn't mention WAV.
No biggie, but Thanks!
Well, you just have to do some experimenting. There is no one "right way" to setup your system. You'll have to tailor yours to your particular needs. Enjoy.
