Multi frontend alternatives

  • LameXP

  • LameXP is an Audio Encoder Front-End, a graphical user-interface for a number of audio encoders. It was developed to support a huge number of input formats. File formats are detected reliably using MediaInfo. Compressed audio formats are decoded to uncompressed Wave files using suitable CLI audio decoders. Furthermore LameXP allows batch processing of multiple audio files. Multi-threading is implemented by processing several audio files concurrently. All the third-party tools incorporated in LameXP are listed in the "About" dialog. The Nero AAC encoder cannot be redistributed due to licensing issues; it is available as a free download from the public Nero web-site. »

  • LameDropXPd

  • LameDropXPd is a practical frontend for LAME that makes things easier to the user, as there is no need to know about command line usage: most LAME settings are reachable on a graphical interface. Besides encoding WAV files to MP3, it can transcode Ogg Vorbis files, decode MP3 files to WAV, and auto-tag the files it encodes.

  • FLAC Frontend

  • [No longer maintained, but downloadable] FLAC Frontend is a Windows GUI (Graphical User Interface) for FLAC. Windows users are used to graphical programs (Rather than a command line). That's why Speek made FLAC frontend. The frontend only makes a batch file for flac.exe and executes it.

  • oggdropXPd

  • oggdropXPd is a drag-and-drop Ogg Vorbis encoder/decoder/player for the eXPerienced user. Features include compression from lossless files (Monkeys Audio, LPAC, FLAC, WAVPACK and OptimFROG), auto-tagging, renaming of encoded files, setting of advanced encoder parameters, use of VorbisGain tags on decode, playlist (.m3u) creation, and others.

  • xACT

  • xACT stands for X Audio Compression Toolkit. It is a GUI based front end for the Unix applications Shorten (3.6.1), shntool (3.0.10), monkey's audio compressor (3.99), flac (1.2.1), wavpack (4.60.1), TTA (3.4.1) and cdda2wav 3.0 (with paranoia support). It also uses sox ( 14.3.1), LAME 3.98.4, AtomicParsley 0.9.0 (for AAC tagging) id3tool (1.2a) and mp4v2 1.91. It executes the basic commands of these applications and adds other features to speed up productivity in creation/use of etree.org standard filesets. »
