Audio Transcoder is all-in-one audio converter and CD ripper software for Windows users. Supporting over 20 audio formats, the program lets you convert audio to most any format, including MP3, WMA, AAC, FLAC. There is also a built-in CD ripper to rip CD and convert CDA to more common music formats like MP3. Other significant features include an ability to get information about CD disks from the Internet, a built-in audio player, abilities to edit meta tags and preserve them in the output, drag-and-drop support and auto-shutdown. Whether you want to rip CD disks with favorite music tracks, convert audio for iPhone, iPod, or cell phone, prepare podcasts, or archive your music collection in one common format like MP3, Audio Transcoder meets all your needs.
Audio Transcoder offers you a three-click way to rip CD or convert audio between a wide range of formats, such as AAC (.aac, .m4a, .m4b, .mp4), MP3, MusePack (.mpc), Ogg, WMA, FLAC, APE, WAV, Speex (.spx). You can control many options of the output. For example, you can choose the output format, quality level with presets (near CD quality 64kbit/s, CD quality 96kbit/s, lossless) and set the converter to shut down automatically when conversion is over. This is especially convenient if you convert a large batch of files. Regardless of the number of records in the batch queue, conversion goes smoothly and flawlessly. The program offers an audio player to ensure accuracy as it can help you see what you are about to convert, or rip without having to step out of the program.
The program requires no learning right out of the box. Just drag and drop necessary files on to its main window, select the output settings and click Convert. Ripping CD disks is a piece of cake too. Basically, you have to go through the same three steps but there is one difference. In the CD ripper mode, Audio Transcoder lets you get information about a CD disk from the Internet - the FreeDB database and, if it is available, download disk details lik
