So today, I’m going to talk about extracting to ripping music CD. And the first thing to do that is you go to your applications at the top here. And you click on Sound Video and then Audio CD Extractor and this will open a sound juicer. And make sure you see this inside of course and see, see out here you could test play if you want or extract but you don’t want to extract as yet. You want to change some settings inside and to do that, you just go to Edit and then Preference. And that could show you this type of thing.
If you want to check or open a folder when you’re finished and the folder where you want to save it to is here. And just leave this on a Folder Hierarchy. And before right here was this filename, yeah, check on the Track Artist and Track Title because you want to make it look sexy when you ripped it off you know. You want it to look something like this like the Beatles and then space and then space. See how it looks like right here, that’s sexy.
Don’t use this shit because I want to leave this. I see this on like—that upload their files. Who the hell wants to do this? Underscore, line , what the fact. Alright, you don’t want to do that. So, just uncheck that shit if it’s checked. So, you want it to look something like this, so sexy should like this.
Okay then down to Output Format. Don’t use MP3s unless you need to save space and that’s all or you’re ripping to your iPod or your—or whatever you use. That’s all I want to say about that because MP3 is slow quality. Yeah, okay and then they have some other one like Ogg, the Ogg files. Ogg is kind of like—it open a format, it’s great but—well if you want to save like have a higher quality than MP3, I guess you use Ogg. It’s in the middle somewhere there. It’s an open standard so you don’t have to you know use MP3s. So, I recommend that or MP3 I guess.
But for me, I would like to use a FLAC. FLAC stands for—let me see what it stands for, Free Lossless Audio Codec. Basically what it does is like an image of your—the exact rip of your songs I mean so I think this is the format that is future proof because you can actually convert it to other format like MP3s or Ogg and it will be just like you’re ripping off from the actual CD because that’s how FLAC is. It’s like the actual CD. But the only drawback to FLAC is the size. It’s like 30 or 40 megabytes per song. But it beats Wave. Wave is like it is too big. Wave is like 500 or a 100 or something like that, I don’t know for per song.
So, if you want high quality and you want like the real, almost like the real CD, you want to save it to FLAC. But you want to save space or you just don’t give a damn MP3s or Ogg is the thing. I would say I would be using like a—if you want open the format, Ogg is alright but for me it’s FLAC. And AAC and stuff is kind of better but come on Lossless is the future to me.
So, once you got it already, let’s see. You got it already, close, and then just hit Extract and it should take five or ten minutes and you’re done. And then it should be in your Music folder. Alright, I already extract this. See, it looks something like this with FLAC—See and look at the files, it’s like 30. So yeah, choose whatever format you like but if you don’t like that, crack in the sound in MP3s and when you know you crank up the volume, yeah use FLAC—
