Monkey's Audio

Lossless audio compressor

Description

One ripped CD as WAV is hundreds of megabytes and the drive fills up. Converting to MP3 hurts, because those details never come back.
Monkey's Audio uses the APE format for lossless compression: files come out noticeably smaller than WAV, and decompress bit for bit to the original. Nothing is lost for listening, and you can always turn it back into WAV.

It also handles other lossless formats. ALAC, FLAC, TAK and WavPack can all be compressed and decompressed, which helps when a library mixes formats and you want one standard.

Features



APE lossless compression: several compression levels let you trade speed against size.

Multi-format conversion: compress and decompress ALAC, FLAC, TAK and WavPack.

Batch processing: add files or whole folders and convert them in one run.

Direct interface: the toolbar is just compress, decompress, add and clear, so there is nothing to learn.
