Batch Processing

[Art Munson]

Hi Gang,

Looking for reliable batch processing software. Any suggestions?

And since many libraries require different formats, do most of you use batch processing and trust the results?

Thanks in advance!

I use DSP Quattro which I got for a “no brainer deal” a while ago, great for batch processing MP3.

Thanks Denis, that does look good…..I should have specified that I am a Windows guy.

For Mac people, check out Audiofile Engineering’s Sample Manager… Very convenient to link several actions together and then batch process.

I’m on windows and had problems finding a reliable piece of software a few years ago. Someone here mentioned iTunes and I’ve been using that without any problems.

I use Sound Forge. Years ago they incorporated what used to be a stand alone batch processing program.

Converting to different file formats? I use switch sound converter.

I use soundforge for the occasional audio batch processing, Audio Watermarker v 5.1 for watermarking and converting into to different file formats and then PFrank, a file rename batch processing tool for anything that Watermarker couldn’t do. I know, its a bit messy…

I had a real problem with that program. It was, intermittently, not converting the whole file even though it showed the conversion as complete. Have you checked your files all the way through?

[Art Munson]

Exactly what I am afraid of. I always end up checking every single file all the way through…..

I’ve used Switch for many years, though I don’t batch. I love the program and never had a problem with it. It’s fast (especially when compared to iTunes!) and easy.

I listen to them some times. When converting from my native 44.1 wav files to 48 aif, I don’t listen to them.

When converting to mp3s I do, but not always. Hopefully there have been no problems!
