Rip CDs to FLAC, straight into your library
Insert a disc and Diskoteca takes it from there: the release is identified before you've found the jewel case lid, and the rip lands in your library already tagged, artworked, and filed. No export folder to tidy up afterwards — the CD comes out the other end as a finished album.
- Recognition
- The moment a disc mounts, Diskoteca looks up its table of contents on MusicBrainz. One match and you go straight to review; several matches and you pick the right pressing — year, label, country, and track count shown side by side. Obscure disc nobody has catalogued? Type the details in once and rip anyway.
- Review before rip
- Every field is editable before a single track is read: album title, artist, year, genre, and per-track titles. Fix the compilation credits before they end up in your tags, not after.
- Formats
- FLAC by default — a lossless, bit-exact copy of the disc. Prefer smaller files? Switch a rip to MP3 or AAC, per disc or as your global default.
- Artwork
- Cover art is fetched from the Cover Art Archive and embedded in the files themselves, so it shows up on your DAP and in every player — not just in Diskoteca.
- Filing
- Tracks are written directly into your library's folder structure —
Artist/Album/01 Title.flac— as they rip. There is no staging folder and no "now organize it" step. - Honest about damage
- Scratched discs happen. Diskoteca reports per-track results: eleven of thirteen ripped means eleven finished albums' worth of tracks in your library and two named failures in the summary — never a silently broken file.
- Already ripped twice?
- Rips run through the same duplicate detection as imports, so re-ripping a disc you forgot you already own gets caught by acoustic fingerprinting before it clutters the library.
