SACD Ripper: How to Rip SACDs Using a PS3
SACD (Super Audio CD) is a high-resolution audio format that offers superior sound quality compared to conventional CDs. However, SACDs are not widely supported by most devices and software, making it difficult to enjoy their content. Fortunately, there is a way to rip SACDs using a PS3 console and a software called SACD Ripper. In this article, we will explain what SACD Ripper is, how to install it on your PS3, and how to use it to rip SACDs.
What is SACD Ripper?
SACD Ripper is a software that allows you to extract the audio data from SACDs using a PS3. It can output the audio in various formats, such as ISO, DSDIFF, DSF, or WAV. You can then transfer the files to your computer or other devices and play them with compatible software or hardware. SACD Ripper is an open-source project hosted on GitHub. You can download the latest version of the software from the releases page or compile it yourself from the source code.

How to Install SACD Ripper on Your PS3?
To install SACD Ripper on your PS3, you need to have a custom firmware that allows patching and the installation of custom applications. You also need to download the PS3 keys and use them on the first time installation. The steps are as follows:
Make sure you have a PS3 model with SACD compatible player. For more information on what model specifically go to: [ps3sacd.com].
Make sure your PS3 firmware is lower or equal to 3.55. A downgrade for a firmware higher than 3.55 is not available.
Download a custom firmware that is 3.55 and supports patching, such as Kmeaw CFW.
Plug a USB stick into your computer and copy the custom firmware file that you downloaded to a USB memory stick as /PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP.
Plug the USB stick into your PS3 and navigate to Settings Tab > System Update > Update via Storage Media. It will say it found Version 3.55. Choose OK and accept the conditions and follow the instructions.
If the steps above did not work for you, then you are probably on 3.55 already. You will have to do a recovery menu mode installation: Power down the PS3 through the menu, then press and hold the power button until you hear one beep followed by two consecutive beeps. Release the power button and connect your controller via USB cable. Press the PS button and select System Update > Update via Storage Media.
Download or compile the sacd-ripper.pkg file from GitHub or SourceForge and copy it to the root of your USB stick.
Plug the USB stick into your PS3 and navigate to Game Tab > Install Package Files > sacd-ripper.pkg.
Download the PS3 keys from [psx-place.com] and copy them to /dev_hdd0/game/SACDRIPR/USRDIR/keys on your PS3 using an FTP client or a file manager such as Multiman.
How to Use SACD Ripper to Rip SACDs?
To use SACD Ripper to rip SACDs, you need to have an SACD disc and a network connection between your PS3 and your computer or other devices. The steps are as follows:
Insert an SACD disc into your PS3 and launch SACD Ripper from Game Tab.
Select Server Mode from the menu and press X.
Note down the IP address of your PS3 displayed on the screen.
On your computer or other device, open a web browser and enter IP address>:2002 in the address bar.
You will see a web interface with various options for ripping the SACD. You can choose the output format, the destination folder, the track selection, and other settings.
Click on Start Transfer to begin ripping the SACD. The progress will be shown on the web interface and on your PS3 screen.
When the ripping is done, you can access the files from the destination folder you specified.
You can also use SACD Ripper in Client Mode, which allows you to rip SACDs directly to your PS3 internal or external hard drive. However, this mode is less stable and may cause errors or freezes. It is recommended to use Server Mode for better performance and reliability.
