Astell & Kern CD Ripper MKⅡ

Ripping Made Easy
The AK CD-RIPPER MKⅡ allows for convenient, smooth CD ripping with its simple connectivity and setup options. When ripping options are set up in advance, the user can simply touch the CD ripping icon to begin once the AK CD-RIPPER MKⅡ has been connected. Once connected, the AK CD-RIPPER MKⅡ will access Gracenote's servers. The Gracenote server provides the latest music data and automatically syncs music information to the ripped music files.

User Preference
The user is given the option to manually enter metadata including album title, artist, genre, and year of release. Users are also able to adjust the ripping speed, ranging from normal to very fast, and modify the file format (either WAV or FLAC). All user preferences can be managed through the settings menu.

Design
Comprised of geometric shapes, the AK CD-RIPPER MKⅡ embodies a futuristic, 3D-esque design. The insertion slot has a rectangular shape, creating a “more vivid design.” In an effort to limit vibrations, the AK CD-RIPPER MKⅡ was designed to be heavier than its predecessor, AK CD-RIPPER. In addition, the triangular base comes equipped with a spring structure to manage the vibrations CD rotations create. As a result, users can undergo a ripping experience free from errors.
