sonic stage and a-3000

[Darth_fool]

Apologies if this has already been answered but i couldn't find it anywhere else.

I've got one of the new A-3000's and have been having a nightmare with connect player its now working in a "functional" way but i'm still having problems

i've got 4500 tracks ripped as .wma files. At the moment the only way i can get them onto the a-3000 is using connect player BUT it recodes the files to atrac3 or atrac3+ and then dumps them onto the player 1 at a time.

a: this is slow as a snail on morphene

b: there isn't enough room on the a-3000 to sync the entire lot at 192k and i dread to think what will happen if i try given the instabilty of connect player at the moment.

I know from other posts that sonic stage will work with the a-3000 ( minus a couple of features ) what i want to know before i try this is does sonic stage allow you to mass convert files without actually copying them onto a device/player?.

Also as far as i can tell atrac files don't hold the tags in the file but in a "database". Does that mean if i use sonic stage i'll lose all the tag info when i do copy them onto the A-3000?.

Thanks in advance for any info

/edit - i know i could just try this but i've already wasted about 8 hours of my life trying to get connect player working properly :-)

Yes ,sonic stage ver3.3 (you can use) can allow you to mass convert Your .wma files to Artac or mp3..

Opne Sonic stage

then go to "Edit ",then select all(it should select all the files in the library)

Then right click in my library then convert.
