Importing Music from Audio CDs
Serato ITCH does not support CD ripping. We suggest you use a third party application like iTunes to convert your audio CDs into a
suitable file type for Serato ITCH. We recommend importing songs as 320kbps mp3 files for high sound quality and low CPU load.
Audio CDs can be played directly from the computer's CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive.
Please visit http://www.serato.com for articles and information on file conversion.
