![]() If a piece of software does not cover my needs I just choose to ignore it and use something else. Again the possibilities are so many.įor all these reasons I choose to rip and buy all my music in ALAC format (or convert the FLAC files I buy to ALAC - it only changes the container with no quality loss). Moreover, I can choose to update the played times or play date metadata of songs even if I listened to them on my iPhone. The possibilities with iTunes’ smart playlists are endless.Īny smart playlist created by iTunes can then be imported/utilized by the DJ software I use.ĪLAC can store precise sound volume metadata by means of 3rd party software (such as iVolume) that remains intact through all of my devices, so I can sync and listen to my favorite playlists while on the move. All I need is a few seconds and a couple of mouse clicks to create smart playlists without duplicates that can contain, let’s say, all US and UK hits of the 90s, or just US hits of the 80s or just UK hits from '69 to '74, or just RnB hits from ‘98 to today, or just Alternative hits from the 90’s from 92-98 BPMs, and so on. ![]() This information is used at playback-time to play a song. I have playlists with Billboard’s Hot 100 songs for each year and UK’s Hot 100 songs for each year. Then you play your songs as usual with Apple Music / iTunes, your iPod, iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV. I can very easily create a smart playlist that can be always up to date with a certain number of least played songs or most played songs or most recently played songs or least recently played songs, and so on. They can store metadata such as play count and last play date (which are also extremely useful for smart playlists that use these metadata in live update) In terms of sound quality ALAC is identical to FLAC, but ALAC surely has many advantages over FLAC for iTunes users.įor example, they are supported by iTunes, which means the user can easily crate smart playlists which can also be live updated. It is also unacceptible that iTunes still does not support the FLAC format (though it is now supported on iOS 11 running on iPhone 7 and later). Una de las cosas que más me han gustado es que iVolume utiliza todos los núcleos, por lo que si tenemos un procesador con varios núcleos el análisis será mucho más rápido. ![]() ![]() It’s just unacceptable that Mixxx does not support ALAC and ACC formats, since Apple made the codec available as open source and royalty-free under the Apache License version 2.0 since 2011. Para que los ajustes de sonido funcionen es necesario marcar en las Preferencias de iTunes la opción Ajuste de volumen. ![]()
