Hello… happy to be told I’m in the wrong category: apologize in advance.
I bought what was then plain ‘Audirvana’ version 3.5.41 in 2020; but never really used it.
Now I want to export everything from Apple Music (né iTunes) - into Audirvana.
But things seem to have changed dramatically.
Do I have to update; buy a subscription; renew my license etc?
Please would someone who knows their way around the Audirvana world point me to a (n ideal single) source/page/site/PDF which explains the different versions of Audirvana.
I’m on macOS 13.2.1 and really only want a flexible and robust music library to store MP3s, FLAC and ALAC, MP2/MPEG4/M4a etc files in.
I don’t think I need online searching or access to Tidal etc.
In a perfect world, I’d be able to synch my desktop library with my iPhone to be able to listen ‘on the road’.
Where should I start, please?
Thanks in advance for any clarification which anyone with five minutes is good enough to offer .
There was some confusion about this on another thread.
The best thing to do is send an email to support@audirvana.com
and you get an answer directly from the source
The 3.5 and Audirvāna Origin are considered as two different software (hence why you can still use the 3.5 even if you buy Audirvāna Origin). But since you are already one of our customer, you can get Audirvāna Origin/Audirvāna Studio at a preferred price when you create your account with the mail you used for your purchase of 3.5 in the past.
Thanks, @Jim_F - and to everyone else who’s helped me here. I have a much clearer idea of how the Audirvana world works now.
My next step is to start the Origin trial, import my files from Apple Music (although I’ve been a happy Mac user for over 40 years, the way they squashed PrimePhonic (for classical music lovers) has made me want to turn away from their Music app: I have to think Audirvana Origin 2 is much better?) and see how it all goes
I am not a Mac (but a Windows) user myself. As far as I understand from others it should be a relatively straigthforward process. I am certain @Antoine or another Mac user can give directions. Antoine is only available during office hours (French time), so he will probably react tomorrow.
