Publisher's description of dBpoweramp Music Converter 13.1

dBpoweramp stands-out when Ripping Audio CD's and Converting Audio Files. CD Ripping: it is vital to rip fast, error free and have quality metadata (track titles). CD Ripper rips as fast your drive is able. Secure Ripping (Error Free) is our forte: dBpoweramp is regarded as the securest of the secure, not surprising from the inventors of AccurateRip. Finally the icing on the cake: PerfectMeta uses 4 Internet metadata providers simultaneously, not just one premium, but two: All Media Guide and GD3, in addition to MusicBrainz and freedb, allowing any errors, such as spelling mistakes to be corrected.

Convert effortlessly between audio formats whilst preserving ID tags and Album Art. Practically every audio type is supported, including mp3, mp4, m4a (iPod & iTunes), Windows Media Audio (WMA), Ogg Vorbis, AAC, Apple Lossless and FLAC (from Codec Central), multi-CPU encoding uses all available cores. A broad range of DSP effects including ReplayGain Normalization, Graphic EQ. Version 13.1 enhances PerfectMeta, supports C2 error pointers over firewire, and updates MP3 (Lame).

Editor's review of dBpoweramp Music Converter 13.1

• "Problem-free conversion"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: dBpoweramp Music Converter 13.1

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.

  "Does what you need it to do, convert CD's to audio file"

  by d4nnyb0y02 on January 21, 2009

  Pros: Easy, with a database that will automatically name the CD, and songs you are ripping for you. Also, you can rip at whatever quality you desire, and then change the quality of the songs by right clicking on any audio file and converting it.

  Cons: Their database is a little weak, sometimes, and the option to upload your list onto their database doens't work so well for me.

  Summary: It's good, and does what it needs to do. You can rip a CD onto your computer into whatever format or quality you desire, and then you can right click on any existing audio file and convert it as well.

  "Converter works somtimes"

  by vorsuch on January 8, 2009

  Pros: It was free once (I found the latest free from pirate bay).

  Cons: Crashes too often. Does not convert iTunes files. Ugly interface. No codecs installed as standard, have to download codecs that require extrernal software from different download sites which is time consuming and difficult.

  Summary: Try this or find better.

  "not worth the money"

  by roxsox on December 14, 2008

  Pros: I thought it has good codecs, but it was a nightmare to install them and still was not able to encode aac properly.

  Cons: Easy CD-DA Extractor does better job.
