This is a short tutorial on using AudioGrabber to rip your songs onto your computer. Please Note that AudioGrabber is not software produced by SoftJock, Inc., and is copyrighted by Jackie Franck, and that we at SoftJock, do NOT do support for AudioGrabber - please see their website here.

Step 1 -- Step 2 -- Step 3 -- Step 4

Step 1: AudioGrabber and Lame Installation

The first thing you need, is a copy of AudioGrabber and the LAME MP3 encoder installed on your computer. You will see the download links to the right. We mirror the complete files on our site to make it easier for you to download and install them. These are free programs, but please observe the license terms and copyrights of those involved.

First, save the AudioGrabber install file, and run the file on your computer (agsetup.exe), this will install AudioGrabber, usually to a folder called C:\audiograbber. Then download the Lame encoder, and unzip the files into the same folder (technically, you only need the lame_enc.dll file).

Now, we will setup AudioGrabber for use with this tutorial. In it, we rip to WAV file first, mainly because it is faster, but it also allows you to save a copy of the WAV files to CD/DVD for later use, so you will not need to keep dragging out your original CDs. After everything is installed as above, you should see an AudioGrabber icon on your Window's Desktop, double click that with your mouse, and off we go...

This is what the AudioGrabber main screen should look like -- proceed to Step 2 to do the setup...
