How to merge two hard drives into one on iTunes?
You'll be fine. Definitely back up your iTunes Library file like Herman suggests as a safeguard. The"Copy Files To iTunes Music Folder When Adding To Library" setting is not relevant to this operation--doesn't matter you have it on or off. If your... 
Please suggest serene, restful jazz recordings
Keith Jarrett, "The Melody, At Night, With...zzzzz." Very restful. I really am not as excited about this as many of the record's fans, but hey, excitement is not what you're looking for. 
Advice on iTunes Settings for the BIG RIP.
Photon, As far as I know, those settings only affect how tunes are burned to a CD from files on your hard drive, and Love gas was asking about ripping files from a CD to the hard drive. The issue you describe concerning tracks that flow from one i... 
Advice on iTunes Settings for the BIG RIP.
From what I’ve been reading Apple Lossless is the way to go. Can I get some advice regarding how to configure other settings in iTunes? Space between songs? I agree with using the Apple Lossless format. Other than choosing the format and the locat... 
What song is your fav.Emmylou cut???
Couple of my favorites are Lucinda William's "Sweet Old World" from Wrecking Ball and Everly Bros.' "So Sad (To Watch Good Love Go Bad)" from Last Date. She sure feels Lucinda's pain on "Sweet Old World"--what a great interpretation. I haven't lis... 
Behringer DEQ 2496 help
CW, Push the Utility menu button and look for the Gain Offset control. I am thinking that the Gain Offset value would be saved in different memory presets, so you could use memory presets to associate different gain settings with different sources...

beautiful piano recordings: solo or small ensemble

ITUNES v7 any good?
Like Edesilva, I think the multiple libraries capability is a significant new feature. I used to kludge my way around the lack of this capability. I'd keep different library files in different places and move an alias to the library I wanted to us... 
Integrated or Separates on a budget
Blewis, do you have room for a separate amp with volume control (e.g., your integrated that you're trying to replace, or the McCormack Micro Line Drive that just sold for $260) to drive your dining room speakers? Then, you could use a spare line-o... 
do burnt CD copys sound as good as originals?
Does anyone know how to edit songs for burning, such as to clip just a portion of a song? I want to make some CDs for component evaluations and don't need entire selections in many cases. Not something you can do in iTunes, is it?This simple editi... 
Definition of "too Hi-Fi"
Good question with an easy answer. "Too hi-fi" means the opposite of "musical." There, that should clear things up. 
Bob Dylan finally makes sense....
Some call him a great poet. I don't know about that. He's a tremendous song writer. Pretty good poet--I don't think being a poet matters to him. Some say he's only an okay musician. If musicianship refers to instrumental or vocal virtuosity, than ... 
Fault in Complete Live at Village Vanguard 1961 CD
Now I see that the title to this take has "(Interrupted)" in it, so now it seems obvious. But already being familiar with the original Sunday At The Village Vanguard and Waltz For Debbie, I was eager to listen to the restored works. Reading liner ... 
Does Apple Lossless + iTunes + Windows = Perfect
From reading related threads on AgoN, I gather that many of us are happy storing our music as Apple Lossless files, because we can't hear any difference between AL and WAV or AIFF. Also, John Atkinson in Stereophile examined files that were conver...
