Kids, grand-kids?
Right but I don't have 2500 of those.
Kids, grand-kids?
Sounds like you've made up you mind.Sure but what's the point of ripping 2 or 3 discs?
It is an estimate. I passed 2000 about a year ago and they keep on coming.2,500 SACDs Kal?
Yes until there's a better, faster way.Sounds like you've made up you mind.
"...they keep on coming." How so?
Yes until there's a better, faster way.
Isn't the cool factor of flipping through cover art on your display and pressing a button to listen worth some investment in time?
I wound up using Pyramix to convert the DSD to AIFF (176.4/24bits) and then converted the AIFF to FLAC with Foobar and then MP3TAG for tagging the flac files. I then backed everything up to an external drive and uploaded to my NAS.
.
Just wondering why you're going the extra step of DSD->AIFF->FLAC, when Pyramix can create FLAC files?
That, sir, is of great interest to me as you are the only one I know of who has done the conversions with all the different apps!Over the holidays I'll be listening and comparing and will post back any weird or noteworthy issues.
That's why I keep monitoring threads like this. I am waiting for the time to come that words like "fairly," "somewhat" and "will be" are not needed.The actual ripping of the SACD-ISO is fairly straightforward, simple and can be somewhat automated now thanks to Mr. Wicked and the PS3. Getting it from DSD to PCM is much more time consuming - at least for the multichannel discs. And if Korg ever adds multi-channel ability to Audiogate, then the MCH process will be a lot easier.

I keep ordering them.
I've probably ripped about 4000 over the past 3 years.
!!! Are you nuts or what!
P.S. Do you have a normal life Bruce?
Yeah I got that; "you're just doin' your job."*
