MP3


Ogg Vorbis

Currently, all recommended Ogg Vorbis utilities are available at the Rarewares Ogg Vorbis page. The following tools are important:

  • Oggenc2
A command-line Ogg Vorbis encoder that can be used with most CD rippers.
  • OggDec
Command-line decoder.
  • OggDropXPd
A (very cute-looking) drag'n'drop encoder/decoder with support for automatic tagging, renaming and playlist creation on encoding.
  • Encoding DLLs
DLLs that can be used for encoding within CDex or WinLame.
  • VorbisGain
The Replaygain utility for Ogg Vorbis.

In addition, highly SSE-optimized utilities and libraries are available at this page (in Japanese).


Musepack (MPC)

Transcoders

Note: Although these tools may convert from one encoding to another, please remember that transcoding to any lossy encoding will result in a degraded quality.
