From iTunes (on MacBook) to Lightning DS (on Auralic Aries)

Question

Finally biting the bullet and moving away from iTunes via an Apple Laptop to Lightning DS via an Auralic Aries. 

 

My current set up is: a Lacie hard disk connected to an Apple Airport Time Capsule, streaming wirelessly to a MacBookPro; the MacBookPro using iTunes into a Schiit Yggdrassil via USB.

 

The hard disk has about 1GB of music, all in Apple Lossless format.

 

So my question is: Any tips on preparing my music library before plugging it in the Auralic Aries?

 

(I’m thinking about things like: using Doug’s Apps to “Embed Artwork”, and/or to “Save Album Art To Album Folder”; what to do about the metadata for compilations etc)

 

Any recommendations appreciated.

Might sound a bit terrible, but why don’t you just let the Auralic import what you have and see how much cleanup you will really need? You may only need a little cleanup. :) 

 

There are clever ways to limit the pain involved, and once you clan up all your metadata once, you never have to do it again. Even with iTunes!

Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat DAC.
