Tip for anyone re-ripping their cd’s
Back Story:I ripped my entire collection years ago(think before 1TB drives were even a thought) from cd to 192 MP3. Well current day, 192MP3 just won’t cut it so I’m re-ripping all my unmixed tracks at 320 and learned that if you re-rip them in itunes AND the names are the same, itunes asks you “do you want to replace exisiting?” if you do this it writes the track over the existing one but KEEPS your metadata and stripe from traktor. So if you, like me, have tracks that are 192 that you’ve already beatgridded in Traktor and saved cue points for, they’ll be added to your newly ripped audio at 320 as long as everything is named the same. This might be general knowledge but I thought I’d throw it out there for anyone considering doing this.
P.S. One thing I’ll add. If you’re re-ripping old “burned CD’s” I’d say not to replace as the data may have corrupted over the years and will copy over a track with unreadable data.
