How To Import song to iTunes using Lame Encoder
Although import song into iTunes is quite easy, but the default setting on iTunes is not the best setting. For better quality you need a program called LAME.
Here’s how to import song into iTunes with the best quality using LAME encoder. You can also get all downloads programs require through the links below this post. Let’s do this following:
- Download the itunes-LAME Encoder by click on itunes LAME importer download and unzip.
- Download the Import with LAME script and unzip.
- Download the little iTunes LAME installer folder and unzip it. This is a magic folder and anything dragged onto it will automatically be installed into the itunes script library.
The next step you should do is install the itunes LAME Encoder and import a CD. Here’s how to do:
- Drag the iTunes-LAME icon (left field above) onto the “Drag here to install” icon.
- Drag the iTunes-LAME script icon onto the “Drag here to install” icon.
- Now in itunes you should have a new menu item between window and help.
- Open itunes and insert a CD. Ensure the CD is selected in itunes.
- Select new itunes menu item Import with LAME and a new iTunes-LAME window will appear.
- Type in “–alt-preset insane” in the window.
- Select prefs and then select ‘cache tracks to hard drive’ also in prefs. Here you need to make sure the destination is set to iTunes Music Library.
After click import, now you will have the best quality CD in itunes in a playlist called imported from LAME. Finally, you can delete this playlist as it is only so that you can see what you just imported.
