Batch ripping on macOS; possible?

[MarkSealey]

Relatively new to dBpoweramp (version 2023-12-22 on macOS 13.6.1).

Two related questions, please:

1. Is it possible to batch rip multiple CDs in one operation using dBpoweramp on macOS?
2. Is there hardware which users here would recommend? I have four USB CD drives of various ages; all work. But ideally I'd like to load a single device - say via my wireless (or Ethernet LAN) network - and set off a batch rip off, say half a dozen (or more) CDs?

I'm contemplating ripping several hundred (thousand?!) CDs into Roon.

Thanks in advance for any help here :-)

Understood, Spoon; thanks.

Then, how can I set dBpoweramp to rip multiple CDs in multiple CD drives, perhaps, simultaneously?

simply start multiple dbpa sessions on your Mac. And for each session choose a different attached drive. I know I can do this in windows, so assume it is possible in the Mac version.

Thanks, Gary. Shall experiment. If the multiple sessions really can run truly concurrently - subject to the limitations of the hardware the I/O overhead - then that really ought to save time, oughtn't it?
