Transferring Tracks or Files 3-5

Ripping Audio

CD Tracks

The first phase in making an MP3 file is extracting audio data from an audio

CD. To extract audio data, you will need a CD-ROM drive that can extract

digital audio data, and a program known as a Ripper. With Creative

MediaSource Organizer, you can rip tracks from most audio CDs. This

application uses the CD-ROM drive to read the audio tracks from the audio

CD and stores it on your hard disk or directly into your player.

The time needed for a successful audio extraction depends on:

❍ CD-ROM drive speed

❍ defects, like scratches on the audio CD

❍ error-checking features on the CD-ROM drive

Encoding is the second phase of making an MP3 file. Encoders are used to

convert the stored audio tracks, usually WAV files, into MP3 files. MP3

encoding is a lossy compression method where some data is lost during

compression. However, using the standard sampling rate and bitrates will

ensure that your MP3 files retain much of their audio quality. The standard

bitrate of most MP3 files is 128 Kbps, although some are set higher, at 160 or

192 Kbps. Higher bitrates will result in larger MP3 file sizes, and may result in

better audio quality. Use Creative MediaSource Organizer to extract audio

tracks and encode MP3s.

You can rip an audio CD’s tracks to your player, hard disk or PC Music

Library. You can choose to rip an entire CD, or selected tracks from the audio

CD.

Rather than manually

entering track

information, retrieve

such audio CD

information from CDDB

before ripping tracks.

Change the default

ripping format and

bitrate for higher or

lower quality audio.
