CD Ripping To Roon Nucleus


I was trying to figure out the best way to rip CD's to my Roon Nucleus.  I was looking at Astell&Kern AK CD Ripper MKII which seems like it connect via usb to the Nucleus.  Has anyone done something similar who can comment on the experience?  I was concerned about if tags, album/artist/song titles would automatically show up.  Lastly I was wondering if it'd help to have a reclocker, such as the Innuos Phoenix between the Nucleus and CD Ripper since they're connected via USB.  I think the reclocker is designed to sit between a router and DAC for network traffic so this is a slightly different use case but I wasn't sure if I'd end up getting a similar positive effect.  Thanks.

I’d just rip the CD’s on my computer, transfer the files on to a usb hard drive, and connect drive to Nucleus.
Why don't you just plug a USB CD drive into the Nucleus? It will rip automatically when you insert a CD.
