Using a Mac, can I make a CD from an album that is on my vault 2i? I no longer have the original CDs that I burned to the vault. There are a few I would like to have on a physical CD, so I want to do the reverse and burn a CD from albums on my vault. If this is possible, how do I do it?

  Yes you can do this but it’s external to the BluOS eco system.

  The files need to be converted to WAV and an audio CD burned, these steps are done automatically using software such as EAC.

  There are options on both Mac and PC just Google “create audio cd from flac” assuming you have the Vault configured to output FLAC files.

  Thx. I’ll see if I can figure it out from your suggestion. I was also thinking along the lines of first importing the album from the vault into iTunes (or “Music”) on the Mac. Then burning the CD from iTunes. Is this a possibility?

  Not done for many years but yes, iTunes did allow you to create Audio CDs

  Seppi... I figured out a somewhat easy way to import albums from the vault into iTunes. Once the album is in iTunes, it's easy to create a CD using iTunes. The FLAC files need to be converted to Apple's lossless ALAC format so an Audio converter is needed.  For anyone who wants to do this, here are the steps I figured out. I'm not sure where I can post these instructions for anyone who would want them. so I send them to you for now. Larry

   

  How To Import Albums from Vault 2i into iTunes (Apple’s “Music” App)

  YOU WILL NEED AN AUDIO CONVERTER to convert the “FLAC” files on the Vault’s albums to Apple’s lossless “ALAC” file format. There are many free ones available on the App store. (I use the “MediaHuman Audio Converter” (mediahuman.com))
  NOTE: There is usually an option in the Audio converter for the output to go directly to your iTunes Media folder. Make sure you check that option.

  1. iMac.  open finder.
  2. click on “Network”
  3. double click  “your vault’s name”
  4. Double click “Shared”
  5. double click “Music”  All the albums will appear in the list.
  6. Drag the album’s folder you want to burn to the Desktop and wait for it to complete copying. It will take a minute or so. 
  11. Open your Audio Converter and follow its instructions for converting your album. Once it’s completed, the album should appear in the “Recently Added” menu option of your Apple’s “Music” library.
