Review
This is official description
There are many audio formats that can be used for storing music, audio books, lectures, and other recordings in digital. Quite often there is a need to convert audio from one format to another. For example, your portable recorder produces sound as WAV, and you want it in MP3. Or you get some album in APE and intend to reduce file size greatly by converting APE to OGG Vorbis. Yet another possibility arises if you want to rip your Audio CDs in order to transfer your favorite music to a portable player.
AudioConverter Studio supports 8 most popular audio formats and can freely convert sound from one of them to another. The supported formats are: MP3, OGG Vorbis, WAV, FLAC, APE, WMA, MPC, and CDA (Audio CD). AudioConverter Studio also offers an easy-to-use Audio CD ripper, thus there are, in fact, two applications in one. Audio CDs can be converted to any of the supported formats. Most people tend to rip Audio CD to MP3 format, but those who prefer lossless formats can rip Audio CD to FLAC, WAV, or APE.
The Audio CD ripper can read CD-Text information to get title, artist, year, and other data on the album. If no CD-Text is available on your Audio CD, the program will automatically fetch all related information from the online database, CDDB. The information is saved inside each file, so after the ripping is done, all files are properly tagged. Even better, you can set any desired pattern for output filenames, so there's no more need for filenames like "track01.mp3".
AudioConverter Studio copies meta information (aka ID3 tags) from source files, if you convert from a higher quality audio format to a lower quality one. For MP3 files, it supports both ID3v1 and ID3v2.
The program can be set to put converted files into input folders and delete source files after a successful conversion. Thus, if you want to convert a considerable part of your music collection to some other format, while preserving the structure of folders, this can be easily done.
AudioConverter Studio is also able to rename files according to information from tags (artist, album, title, track number etc.), and to create new folders by any custom pattern.
The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 6.0
AudioConverter Studio 6.0 is a program which helps you to convert audio files from one format into another. This application is similar to all other conversion tools available on the Internet. However, it supports many audio formats and it lets you convert them into the following files: Mp3, WMA, OGG, FLAC, MPC, APE, WAV, PLS and M3U. You can add as many files as you want into the program's main window and convert them all at once because this program supports batch conversion. With this software, you will be able to change audio files' names, albums, genre, year and similar information. Maybe you downloaded an audio file from Internet and its information is wrong. Well, you can use this program to change it if you want to. If you have installed this application on your computer, you will be able to convert audio files so that you can later extract them to portable devices (Mp3 player, Mp4 player, iPod, iPhone, etc). AudioConverter Studio 6.0 works well in almost all Windows Platforms. This program is a new version of AudioConverter Studio. It has been improved in the late versions adding new features.
The program also allows you to configure some advanced settings such as audio bit rates, channels, frequency and more. |
