Your file will be converted and added to the iTunes playlist you created. When you next want to convert an audio file (no Ogg, FLAC, or Windows Media files allowed) just drop it on top of this workflow.
Save your workflow as an application and place that application on the Desktop. In the Import Files Into iTunes action, choose New Playlist and enter Automator Converted. From the Destination pop-up menu choose a place for those converted files to be temporarily stored-a Converted folder you’ve added to your desktop, for example. From the Setting pop-up menu in the Encode To iTunes Audio action, choose the encoder you want to use-High-quality, iTunes Plus, Apple Lossless, or Spoken Podcast. Like so:įor audio conversion, create an Application workflow and string together these two actions (found under the Music heading)-Encode To iTunes Audio and Import Files Into iTunes. You simply have to create a workflow for it. Snow Leopard’s Automator includes this same capability. By default it’s saved to the same location as the source file, but you can change that by unchecking the Same as Source File option and choosing a new location via the window’s pop-up menu.Īutomator If the previous option sounds good to you but you can’t use it because you haven’t upgraded to Lion, there’s still hope. But for any files you plan on distributing (like the one I plan on sending the radio station) you should edit both the filename and the metadata.Select the option you want, click the Continue button at the bottom of the window, and your file is converted. Edit the metadataĭepending on the use-case, this can be optional. The easiest way to find it is to review your "recently added".Īfter you find your file, it's best-practice to check and edit the metadata. But it will NOT automatically be added to the playlist, your current view. The new MP3 file will automatically get added to iTunes.
The curator asked me to send a Convert -> Create MP3 Version Mine: An FM music radio station in the United Kingdom is going to play my new single 🍾🥂 And sometimes, you have a reason for creating those outliers.
It's one of those situations where there is a strong correlation between the two. Why you might want to try this? Fidelity is not quality. Check the Advanced file import settings in Apple Music (aka iTunes).Here is my usual method, on Mac OS Monterey (Desktop) Regardless of whether you hear it or not, in all practical cases, your audio track literally loses fidelity when you convert a WAV to an MP3.
