Adding Audio Tracks & CDs

MediaMonkey can be used to manage both Audio CDs and Audio Tracks, and depending on your intentions these can each be added to the library in slightly different ways.

• If you want to add files and folders that already exist on the network or your hard drive, see Adding Files & Folders.
• If you want to add a CD to your Library for the purposes of cataloguing your CD collection, without ripping the contents of the CD to your hard drive, see Adding CD Albums.
• If you want to add a CD to your Library, and rip the contents of the CD to your hard drive, you may go about this in 3 ways:

1. If you don't care about tracking which CDs you physically own, you can simply Rip the CD. See Ripping Tracks from CDs.
2. If you are interested in tracking which CDs you physically own, you'll want to save the Tracks to the Virtual CD. See  Ripping Tracks and Cataloguing Physical CDs.
3. If you are going through a large number of CDs and want to most efficiently Rip selected contents from the CDs, you'll want to use the Virtual CD Queue. See Ripping Tracks from Large Numbers of CDs.
