CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This mostly standard audio utility simply converts files and rips CDs, but it works without a hitch. dBpowerAmp Music Converter has separate interfaces for extracting audio from discs and batch converting tunes. In our tests, the program showed good speed. It can even rip some protected audio CDs and includes a basic player.
It queries CD information from the Web and can automatically create subfolders and name tracks. To keep the download size small, it only includes MP3 (LAME) and WAV codecs, though you can easily download and install additional components from the publisher's site. Similar to other utilities in this genre, dBpowerAmp Music Converter lets you determine the audio quality of your new files, though it also offers an ample number of presets.
Also, unlike some competing programs, this demo will let you rip or transform as many files as you like for a full month. Most people who rip and convert audio files occasionally will find something to like about dBpowerAmp Music Converter, particularly novices.

Version: dBpoweramp Music Converter 12.1
Pros: This is the only app I use to convert audio.
If you goto their "Legacy Codec Central" page and get the mp3 blade codec, you can encode mp3's free of charge.
Cons: none yet.

Version: dBpoweramp Music Converter 12.1
Pros: For the novice digital sound engineer (those who don't know an mp3 from STP) this is easy to use conversion software. I was converting shortened files to wav and did so with no problem.
Cons: For my purposes, the software had no limitations. The more advanced engineers will probably expect more.
