Convert selected tracks and export the converted files to a new folder

AppleScript Applet for Music

Universal, for macOS 11 and later only. This script converts the files of the selected tracks in the Music app using an encoder chosen on-the-fly (restoring your Preferences-set encoder afterwards). The newly converted files are then moved to a new location of your choice, and their tracks removed from Music. The read me doc contains additional important information.

This app is free to try in Demo Mode. In Demo Mode only up to 5 files can be processed per launch. You can buy a code for $2.99 which will remove the 5-file Demo Mode restriction via an in-app purchase.

Also see M3Unify, an application that provides many more options for converting/exporting files from Music or iTunes, including customizable file re-naming, sub-folder mods, artwork export and more.
