Optimizing Preformance
For optimum sonic performance when using iPhone, iPad and iPod we highly
recommend that you store music at the highest bit rate you can justify. Storing
music files at higher bit rates will require substantially more storage space on
your computer, iPhone, iPad and iPod, however, the sonic improvement is self
evident. The highest available quality is achieved by importing music into iTunes
as WAV or AIFF files. AIFF and WAV files are full resolution files equal to the
original master source. Another good option for storing music in iTunes is Apple
Lossless. Apple Lossless will allow you to preserve much of the performance of
your music while not using as much space on your computer, iPhone, iPad and
iPod. To make sure that you are importing music at the highest bit rate you will
need to open iTunes and follow these instructions.
• Select – Open the iTunes drop down menu (Mac), or
Edit Tab (Windows) from the menu bar
• Select – Preferences
• Select – Advanced Tab (within the Preferences window)
• Select – Importing Tab (within the Advanced Tab window)
• Select – Import Using (2nd Selection From Top). With this Drop Down
menu you will be able to select AIFF, WAV or Apple Lossless
• Select – AIFF, WAV or Apple Lossless Encoder
