Cda To Mp3 Conversion

CDA which stands for CD Audio, is not an audio file format like MP3 or WMV

. Rather, when an OS detects an Audio CD, it reads the basic information recorded on the CD, including the number of tracks, CD Text if present, total duration etc. To access the audio tracks, it also creates CDA labels, though the labels are not real files and are impossible to copy by selecting and dragging them. So to convert CDA to MP3, you will be required to rip your Audio CD, as CDA labels cannot be converted at all, as they contain no audio information.

Things you will need

Instructions

AudioConverter Studio offers the option to set output folder (1) and filename format (2). Use any folder on your computer; the filename format option will allow you to set a pattern for filename and folder names. That is your converted files can have user friendly names and sorted by folders according to artists, album name, etc. The information for filenames and folder names will be taken from CDDB, of from CD Text if available. Click 'Next.'

Another wizard page will appear; here, specify MP3 file as the output format, adjusting your specified MP3 bit rate as well. Note that they 'prelisten conversion' box, if checked, will make the program convert only a few seconds of each track. To convert entire tracks, make sure that option is kept unchecked.

When the final page of the wizard pops up check all settings again, and if everything is OK, click 'finish' to rip the Audio CD. The converted MP3 will be found in the folder you specified before.
