What music formats are supported for mixing?

Supported formats include MP3,WAV and M4A (iTunes - non protected). Protected iTunes files (M4P) cannot be converted by the Training Principle software because they are protected by Digital Rights Management(DRM). Hopefully, Digital Rights Management(DRM) will eventually be stopped and all your purchased music from the iTunes store will be supported. Look for non-protected songs in the near future when purchasing music. If you want to use protected files, you must create a CD of the songs, then rip the CD into your library. When ripping, MP3 format is preferred, but not necessary (Will be faster when creating playlists).

Why can't I use my iTunes music that was purchased from the iTunes store?

iTunes music purchased from the iTunes store is protected and cannot be, by law, used in the mixing process. iTunes music contains a DRM (Digital Rights Management) technology that prevents and limits the use of the music file. To use DRM protected music files, burn them on a CD, then re-rip the CD into an MP3 format.
