EZ CD Audio Converter

EZ CD Audio Converter by Poikosoft is a Windows-focused audio toolkit for converting, ripping and burning digital audio. The application targets users who need precise control over file formats, metadata preservation and high-quality sample-rate and format conversions across an extensive set of codecs and container types.

Features and Functionality

• Format breadth: Supports more than 60 audio and video formats for input and output, including FLAC, MP3, M4A, AAC, DSD, ALAC, OPUS and WAV, with native inclusion of commonly used codecs to avoid external downloads.
• High-quality conversion: Professional-grade sample-rate conversion and high-precision processing (32-bit and 64-bit floating-point support) with options for maintaining source bit depth and encoder precision.
• Secure CD ripping: Advanced error detection, 2-pass CRC verification, de-emphasis handling, and creation of exact disc images including cue sheets for archival-quality extraction.
• Disc burning and image creation: Burn audio CDs, MP3/data discs, write CD-Text, and create or burn ISO images with support for ISO-9660/Joliet and UDF filesystems.
• Metadata and artwork: Enhanced metadata editor and automatic retrieval of album art and tags from multiple online services (GD3, MusicBrainz, Discogs, Deezer, Amazon) to preserve and correct track and album information during conversion.
• Batch processing and performance: Batch conversion with support for up to 64 parallel converters, enabling large-scale library processing and queue management for multiple files and albums.
• Audio post-processing: DSP features including EBU R128 and ReplayGain v2 loudness scanning/normalization, sample peak/true peak normalization, leading/trailing silence removal, fade in/out, and de-emphasis for pre-emphasized discs.

Usability and Workflow

The interface organizes ripping, conversion and burning into a task-oriented workflow with presets and profile management for recurring tasks. Drag-and-drop file handling, batch queues and an enhanced metadata editor streamline library maintenance and file preparation for portable devices or archival storage.

Technical Scope and Compatibility

• Platform: Native Windows application with broad optical drive and filesystem compatibility.
• Audio resolution: Supports sample rates from 8 kHz up to multi-megahertz DSD (DSD64, DSD128, DSD256) and bit depths including 1-bit DSD, 8/16/24-bit PCM and 32/64-bit floating point.
• Channel configurations: Handles mono, stereo and multi-channel layouts suitable for standard and surround formats.
