Saving converted mp3-->Atrac files to HD?

[drmoze]

I have a few folders with mp3 files that I imported into SS (4.0). I also transferred them to my DAP in Atrac format (using the transfer preferences). No problem.

But, I want to save a copy of the Atrac version of these music files to my HD. Can I do this asily? I could ot find any such files on my HD. I'd also like to save the Atrac versions with their original filenames, organization, etc. Would creating an Atrac CD from the mp3 files and then copying the CDR back to the HD work? Any way to do this without using a CDR?

Hey drmoze,

The Atrac files are still in your computer. You can do a windows search to find all the *.OMA files on your computer.

OR

you can open up Sonicstage, go to "Tools" then "Options" and under the sub-tab "Location to save imported files" and then you can see where the files have been saved.

When you rip CDs on your own, you can select to have them not add copy protection DRM into the files.

I havn't checked whether the files that are from MP3 => OMA can disable copy protection or not. Feel free to install SS onto a different computer and try to play one of the OMA files to see whether it is copy protected or not..

but for sure the tracks you rip from CD and you deselect Copy Protection those you can play on any computer
