Converting Audio Files

The purpose of the in-app conversion tool is to convert audio files of compressed formats with playback issues to stable uncompressed formats, or to resample audio files with unsupported sampling rates to supported ones.

To convert audio file(s), first, select it/them. Second, choose the File | Convert Selected Files… item from the main menu or the same option from the right-click context menu of the Playlist.

In the opened dialog menu you can choose the output format (WAV or AIFF) and the action to be done with sampling rate. The sampling rate options are the following:

• Same as original. The source file(s) are not resampled.
• 44100 Hz. The sampling rate of the output file is set to 44.1 kHz, regardless of the source sampling rate.
• 48000 Hz. The sampling rate of the output file is set to 48 kHz, regardless of the source sampling rate.
• Auto choose 44100 Hz or 48000 Hz (downsample to multiple where original samplerate is higher). If the file sampling rate is 44.1 kHz or the multiple of 44.1 kHz (88.2 kHz, 176.4 kHz, etc.), the output samplerate is set to 44.1 kHz. If the file sampling rate is 48 kHz or the multiple of 48 kHz (96 kHz, 192 kHz, etc.), the output samplerate is set to 48 kHz.

When the original sampling rate of a file is changed, it is labeled as Resampled in the output filename.

After checking out or adjusting all the settings, press the Convert button to proceed. When done, the new file(s) would be added to the Playlist after its/their source file(s).
