„
Track template
“
, this shows how the folder structure for
the audio tracks is built. The default generates a folder for the
artist, then a sub folder for the album and then single files for
each track. This structure can be edited by tapping on the en-
try to the right of the Track template. Now tap into the top bar
of the newly opened window. Delete the entries and reassem-
ble a new one by tapping on the Templates for Artist, Album
etc. as necessary. Also add / to designate folders.
Do this editing only if you know what you are doing. In most
cases the default entry for the Track template is just fine.

„
Compilation template“
, this is similar to the Track tem-
plate, but meant for those Albums designated to be compila-
tions (like e.g. movie soundtracks, label samplers etc.). The de-
fault folder for the tracks tagged as Compilations is the „Com-
pilation“ folder.

„
Target format“
, select the audio format you would like
the Album to be ripped in. We recommend the
flac
format or, if
you like to play the tracks in iTunes as well, then chose the Ap-
ple Lossless (
alac
) format.
The following formats are lossy and thus not recommended
for High-End quality ripping:
mp3
,
ogg
,
aac
,
mpc
. Their advan-
tage though is that they take up about one tenth of the space
an ai
ff
or wav file would take.
Ai
ff
or
wav
are not recommended because they take up about
twice the storage space compared to flac or alac but do not
generate better sounding playback.
