I either imported or bought most of my music in the days of iTunes. With the updated Mac OS (I now have Big Sur) and the movement of all the music to the new Music App, I now can't seem to convert any of my songs to MP3 format in spite of changing import settings in the Preferences menu to MP3. When I highlight the song desired and choose the Convert To> menu item, the choice for MP3 format is inactive (greyed out). Any suggestions?
and it worked for me. Are you sure the song(s) you are trying to convert are PURCHASED from the iTunes Store (or imported from a CD, etc.). Music that you LEASE with an Apple Music subscription are DRM copy protected and cannot be converted. That is the only explanation I can think of. If you still have problems, use the 'Get Support' link at the top-right corner of this page.
That creates a duplicate copy of the file where the format of the file implied by the file extension differs from the format defined by the internal structure of the file. It won't work. As noted above DRM protected content from the Apple Music subscription service cannot be converted to a new format.
Thank you for your feedback. I followed the directions on this support page referenced, but unfortunately it has not worked for me. One thought that I had was that I have been subscribing to iTunes match service for the last few years, and I wonder if it has converted all the songs I imported from previously purchased CDs into DRM protected files?
So, I found out that I was trying to convert my music to MP3 while the only copy was in the cloud. Once I downloaded the music from the cloud to my desktop, I was able to then convert it to MP3 format. Thank you all for your input!
In the old version of iTunes all I had to do was select all the songs I wanted to convert to AAC format, let it do it's thing and then when it finished the original versions (usually mp3 files) were still selected and all I had to do was hit Delete and done. In iTunes 11 you select the songs you want to convert and when it is done the original versions are NO LONGER SELECTED! AAAHHH!!!! Then to top it off they are not even in order. You now have 2 versions of the same song and sometimes the mp3 version is on top and sometimes the AAC version is on top. So I have to go through each one to see which is which so I can delete the mp3 version! Anyone else know of a better way to do this? And is there a setting so it doesn't automatically Match to the clouds if you have iTunes Match?
Here's a good method that I use. Once you have your songs converted, you can choose View > Show Duplicate Items. This will display all of the songs you just converted (note that it may display regular duplicated items as well).
It really sounds more like you want a one-press (OP) format of your song instead of the default multi-part (press) songs. OP songs are available from Resources as drums OP or OP with bass or other instruments.
You can record directly from any program into Audio Hijack, if you are on a Mac, or Total Recorder on PC. Then you can just play the song from Beat Buddy Manager and record directly into the audio capture program.
Hello everyone,
I have coded some games for Windows (MonoGame Windows Project) that my brother has tested on Linux through Lutris. All work except one. The problem seems to be a music file (.mp3) which is converted to .wma during compilation and which Lutris does not seem to accept. Is there the possibility to convert a music file into .ogg format instead of .wma?
The Cubase song and arrangement formats .ALL and .ARR used by Cubase Atari versions up to Cubase VST 5 for Windows and Mac have been replaced by the current project file format .CPR with the introd...
Use file - import - Cubase arrangement , then file save as to save as a CPR
or
Use file - import - Cubase song
The song opens with a table. Select one row at a time for each arrangement within the song.
You need to do this multiple times to convert the entire song.
Select the row. When the song is loaded go to File - Save as to save in cpr format.
You can use the Apple Music app on Mac or iTunes for Windows to convert song files between compressed and uncompressed formats. For example, you might want to import some uncompressed files into your music library as compressed files to save disk space. Examples of compressed formats are MP3 and Apple Lossless Encoder. Examples of uncompressed formats are AIFF or WAV.
You can import songs into the Apple Music app or iTunes for Windows and convert them at the same time. This creates a converted copy of the file in your music library, based on your preferences in the Apple Music app or iTunes for Windows.
When you convert a file with the Apple Music app or iTunes for Windows, the original file remains unchanged in the same location. The Apple Music app and iTunes for Windows creates the converted file from a copy of the original.
When you convert a song to certain compressed formats, some data might be lost. These compressed formats give you a much smaller file size, which lets you store more songs. But, the sound quality might not be as good as the original, uncompressed format.
If you compress a song and it loses data, you can't uncompress it to retrieve the data. If you convert a song from a compressed to an uncompressed format, its quality doesn't improve. The file only takes up more disk space. An example is when you convert a song in MP3 format (a compressed format) to AIFF (an uncompressed format). The song takes up much more space on your hard disk, but sounds the same as the compressed file. To take advantage of uncompressed formats, you should import songs in these formats.
this is a great (and free!) tool to do conversions, i use it all the time (for example, to make mp3s from wav files); you can do batches, convert lots of formats. go to 44/24 (or confirm what the requirement is).
All help is appreciated, thank you! First of all, can you see whether 2.0 opens anything on the osx dock? It should pop up two icons/apps there, the one with platypus on yellow background (same as version 1.1, Rocksmtih 2014 CDLC convert pc mac) and then the actual GUI which on my system looks like a terminal window with green "exec" text in it (RSConvert_GUI). These should also show in system monitor.
Many thanks for this. It looks like it converts, I can see the song in my library, I select it to play it, it goes to tune guitar and then I just get the screen with the pic of the two amps on it and it stops there.
If some cdlc are running fine (directly downloaded as mac versions), but only the ones that are converted with my tool are not, please upload some example songs to e.g. google drive so I can take a look what might be wrong with them (original and the converted file).

I wanna speed up my workflow a bit, by doing everything on the Maschine itself. My question is about the clips function. So I searched for tutorials but, everyone is just talking about how to convert the patterns to clips in in the maschine 2 software.
The program has already been posted there by the creator of the program, but because i still see people saying there is no easy way of converting Clone Hero songs to Rock Band, i decided to repost this awesome program!
Program is very simple and easy to use, you just download Clone Hero song and drag the whole folder into program and then you just wait few minutes for program to convert and then you just drag the file on USB, put USB in Xbox 360 and ROCK!
