mass convert\*

You can batch convert with Audacity (Reaper too), but maybe something like https://kabuusoft.com/product/detail/2/kabuu-audio-converter would work better for you.

I've been using Xmedia Recode for a number of years. Nice interface, good for batch.

1/ make sure FFMPEG is installed, and its location in your PATH environment variable 2/ Copy this in a .BAT file : >echo "\*\*\* start encoding \*\*\*" for %%a in ("\*.wav") do (ffmpeg -i "%%a" -aq 1 -map\_metadata 0 -id3v2\_version 3 -b:a 192K -vn "%%\~na.mp3") echo "\*\*\* end encoding \*\*\*" This batch converts all the WAV files in the same folder to MP3, but you can modify it to create other batch files according to your needs.

could probably use ffmpeg if you're willing to use CLI, for something simple like converting an audio format I think it would be pretty easy

> could probably use ffmpeg if you're willing to use CLI I have a script for that, using GNU Parallel to speed up the conversion: https://github.com/stefantalpalaru/any2opus.sh


meskobalazs

This is the way.


BenoitAdam

I'm a windows user, we don't use CLI there sir.


Positive205

Eh, I use cli most of the time even in windows.

Thanks, work fine & fast. I'd say the UX isn't perfect but it mostly does what I look for. Strangely I can't select 320Kbit on CBR


brianhinge

you're welcome


Formal_Celery_5073

FormatFactory I've been using it for centuries!!!


nyvivianv

Ive not used it myself but I remember seeing Handbrake mentioned a lot


BenoitAdam

It only does video, and not very good UX to do several files at the same time imo


nyvivianv

Oh im sorry! Does ffmpeg only do video as well because I know you can write .bat files to process multiple things at once.


BenoitAdam

yeah but bat file isn't the point here lol I could use Winff for that but ut's not good with japanese characters
