Make sure tags in iTunes are OK by looking at "Get Info" dialog box.Ĭan any dBpoweramp/FLAC/iPod experts provide any insight or guidance into what I might be doing wrong? Should I just not use ANY DSP effects when converting from FLAC to mp3? I've tried looking into this online but between the Hydrogenaudio and dBpoweramp forums I'm having trouble finding consistent information. Open up iTunes, select "Add Folder to Library" to import mp3s.

Use Mp3tag to clean up tags (e.g., change "Date" to "Year") before importing into iTunes.Convert files to mp3 (CBR 320) and save to "MP3 for iPod" directory in the My Music folder.Select FLAC files I want to convert to mp3, right-click, and select "Convert to" from menu, which opens up dBpoweramp Music Converter dialog.Rip CD to FLAC (main digital music library stored on an external hard drive and streamed to Squeezebox for home listening) using dBpoweramp.Here's my step-by-step process in case anyone's wondering (all done in Windows XP SP3):

Does anyone else here use dBpoweramp to convert their FLAC files to mp3s for portable listening on their iPod? What settings (or lack thereof) do you use? I've started to notice weird glitches when I do this on my computer such as the "Year" tag being changed to "Date," and now I'm listening to an album on my iPod that I just converted to mp3 (CBR 320 kbps) and gapless playback isn't working! I've recently tried using the "Volume Equalizer" DSP effect when converting to mp3, perhaps this is what caused it?
