Scratch: Audio
Importing Music
from iTunes
Cheat Sheet 20080312

Change the import settings in iTunes to convert your audio for Scratch projects.

Scratch will accept:

  • mp3
  • WAV (uncompressed)
  • AIFF
  • AU (8-bits or 16-bits, but not 24-bits per sample)

iTunes - Preferences - Advanced - Importing

Import Using: MP3 Encoder

Setting: Good Quality (128 kbps)

Thereafter, select your track and convert to MP3:

Advanced - Convert selection to MP3

iTunes then converts your selection and adds it to your library.

⌘R will locate the file for you in a separate window.

You can also drag the MP3 file from iTunes and then drop it onto your desktop or into your project folder and then import it from there for use in Scratch.
