APE Ripper is a software that can convert APE files tot the WAV, MP3 and other types of format.

The user interface of the application is plain and simple. You can insert an APE and CUE file by using the file browser (the "drag and drop" method is not supported).

So, you can edit the APE information, such as album, artist, year and genre, as well as view the title, time length and performer of the track.

But you can also select the output directory and format (MP3, WAV, APE, VOX, G726, G723), as well as change audio settings (bitrate, sample frequency rate, quality, compression priority, channels).

After you press the "Start" button to initialize the conversion process, you can view the total progress of the task. Also, you can use an ID3 tag editor (e.g. title, artist, album, track, comment, composer, copyright, URL), change the interface skin and language.

In the "Options" menu, you can set the output folder to the same one as the APE file and establish default parameters for audio settings.

The program uses a moderate quantity of system resources and is able to complete a task in a reasonable amount of time. The sound quality of the output files is pretty good.

Furthermore, there is a help file at your disposal, so you can easily learn how to use APE Ripper, even if you are an inexperienced individual. Too bad the trial version has some harsh limitations, as you can see in the Product Description below.

All in all, APE Ripper is a very good program for encoding APE files to other formats, and we strongly recommend it to all users.
