- Rip CD using EAC, encoded using FLAC
- Place CD in drive
- Proofread & correct freedb information
- F4 to 'Detect Gaps'
- Action > Create CUE Sheet > Current Gap Settings...
- Create artist folder on local drive
- Create album folder beneath artist folder
- Save the CUE sheet to the album folder
- Shift+F6 to 'Test & Copy Selected Tracks Compressed'
- (while ripping) Go to allmusic.com and download cover.jpg to album
folder. Occasionally do a Google image search if cover art can't be
found at allmusic.com.
- (while ripping) Edit CUE sheet to reference .flac files instead of
.wav.
- Open folder in Mp3tag (using right-click in Windows Explorer). Run
series of Mp3tag Action Groups to:
- Add Artistsort tag
- Add Albumsort tag
- Add Compilation tag (0 or 1, added to all albums)
- Add additional Artist tags to all or some tracks (optional)
- Add additional Genre tags (optional)
- Add Disc tag (multidisk albums only)
- Add Discc tag (multidisk albums only)
- Add Albumartist=Various Artists (compilations only)
- Move the artist/album folder to its final destination on the file
server.
Occasionally there's a bit more work in Mp3tag, particularly when
dealing with a compilation or odd tracks with contributing artists, as
the Artistsort must be set according to whether the artist is a person
(last name first, first name last) or a group (delete leading articles)
or multiple artists (no artistsort tag can be set).
