4-4 Using SoundJam™ MP with Macintosh OS
Creating a Playlist
A playlist is a list of songs arranged in a particular order. SoundJam’s
Playlist Composer creates new playlists for you automatically, based
on criteria that you supply.
To build a playlist:
1. Open SoundJam, go to File menu.
2. Choose new playlist, a new dialog box called “Untitled playlist”
appears, to which you can drag and drop MP3 files.
Converting CD Audio to MP3
There are several ways to convert music from a CD to MP3. The
following instructions represent one of the preferred methods.
To convert CD audio tracks to MP3 files:
1. Insert a CD into your CD-ROM drive.
2. On the Window menu, choose Audio CD (or the name of the CD).
3. Click the name of a track that you want to convert to MP3.
4. Click Add to Converter.
5. When you have added all of the files you want to convert into the
Converter, select “SoundJam MP3 Encoder” from the “Convert
using” menu. Then, click on the “Start converting” button.
This conversion uses the default configuration. You may want
to change the configuration later, but for now the default
settings will supply excellent quality MP3 files for your D.A.P
player II MG.
The “Start converting” button changes to “Stop converting” and
the progress of the file conversion is shown in a bar on the lower
left of the window.
