• Bandcamp support is faltering – maybe you should download your music now

  It supports ALAC. There’s a handy app called XLD (X Lossless Decoder) that will convert from FLAC to ALAC (and probably back) in a couple clicks if you need it. Lossless means I don’t really need to care whether my music is in an equivalent format, but I will admit it’s a bit silly. https://tmkk.undo.jp/xld/index_e.html. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Audio encoding question

  I would be surprised if XLD cannot do what you want. Source: 10 months ago

• This error keeps showing up when I try to import a CD. Any reason for that or any advice?

  Please ignore the misinformation in this thread about CDs being too old to be ripped, and download XLD and follow this guide. Source: 10 months ago

• What is your favorite mac app that you just discover in first half of 2023?

  I don't have any OPUS files, but personally, I'm fine with MP3s, so typically, I just run songs through XLD. Source: 10 months ago

• Moving CDs to ext. HD on Studio

  Take a look at XLD, it supports lossless formats (flac, alac, wav, aiff) as well as standard compressed formats. It also checks online services for metadata and album art. I ripped a ton of CDs with it. Source: 11 months ago

• how do you handle your podcasts transcription and timestamps

  For transcripts, I use Descript. Descript is able to identify all four of our panel members, and I usually spend an hour or so cleaning it up and setting the transcript into a video for YouTube. Source: about 1 year ago

  I don't understand exactly what you are trying to do, but I'm pretty sure Descript can do what you want. Source: about 1 year ago

• What is your preferred way to make a voice-over?

  I tried to use descript.com but found out that they didn't have a download for Linux and that their online version doesn't allow you to edit your transcript. Source: over 1 year ago
