Prepare a set from an Apple Music playlist
Mac only
Your selection is already made in an Apple Music playlist. You want it out as AIFF, or on a USB stick, without hunting for the files one by one.
Settings, just once
Open Surco's Settings (⌘ , on Mac) and find each option by its name.
SettingsOutputWhere converted tracks goOutput folder
Just below you pick the folder for the set, or your USB stick.
Then, each time
- 1
Import the playlist
From the start screen or with ⌘K, choose “Import from Apple Music” and then the playlist.
- 2
Check whether any are missing
Surco loads the files you have on disk. Streaming or undownloaded tracks are counted apart, as “with no file”.
- 3
Pick the format
In the arrow next to the convert button, AIFF for example. Otherwise each track keeps its format.
- 4
Click “Convert”
The copies go to the folder and your Apple Music files are left alone.
- If a file is missing details Music has, like the year or the artwork, Surco takes them from Music.
- Surco loads the playlist as it is. If you add tracks to it later, import it again.
