Softpedia Editor's Review for Switch Sound File Converter
|
An audio file format converter software for MP3, WAV and 20 other file formats
Written by Elena Opris on August 23rd, 2012
Switch Sound File Converter prepares your audio files for playback on any portable device. Because of its support for all popular audio formats, we can safely call it a universal audio converter.
When your music collection is populated with all sorts of audio types, except the ones you need, a third-party application is required to accomplish audio conversion without making a compromise in sound quality. If that’s the case, search no more. Switch Sound File Converter can perform this task for you at great speed, while maintaining a decent level in terms of quality.
It features support for a wide array of audio formats, among which there are the following: WAV, MP3, FLAC, OGG, AIF, AAC, AMR, AU to name the most important ones. Aside from performing flawless encoding, the application is also capable of extracting audio streams from video and DVD files.
Based on the preferred output format, the application allows you to customize the encoder options. For instance, if MP3 is your format of choice, you can customize the bitrate and the channel encoding mode (stereo / mono).
How does it work? You simply add the file or files you wish to convert, select the output directory and format, and hit "Convert". You can convert one file at a time, but batch conversion is also a possibility. Also, you can listen to songs prior to conversion and you can edit tags for each audio file.
All in all, Switch Sound File Converter may be one of the simplest and most effective converters out there. With its aid, you can get your music collection ready for portable devices with very little effort.
