Clever titles aside, MP3 Audio Converter v4.4 is a solid MP3 converter. It is easy to navigate and it’s clear that EZ SoftMagic Inc. knows what they are doing when it comes to developing audio software for your computer.
Standout Features:
Frankly, MP3 Audio Converter isn’t breaking any new ground. It’s a solid converter with solid input and output support. You can drag your files and folders into the workspace. You can convert one file at a time or a group of files. With this in mind, it is hard to argue against the price. This encoder is one of the more reasonably priced packages. Keep in mind that this program is the basic package. It will get the job done, but it's not going to knock your socks off.
The biggest factor that stood out during evaluation was a small detail. But when there are so many MP3 encoders out there, the details are the deciding factors. In the conversion settings, they offer all the same areas of manipulation that the other programs have: bitrate, sample rate, channel, output etc. But EZ SoftMagic Inc. had a stroke of genius and added a list of conversion quality settings.
This list contains a range of options from “HiFi Quality” to “Telephone Quality”. After choosing your output format, you can then select one of the five quality settings. These automatically alter the appropriate settings. The genius is in naming these presets as such, HiFi, CD, FM Radio, AM Radio and Telephone. This gives you a real world comparison point for choosing your audio file parameters. All these variables for each format type don’t mean much to anyone without an audio engineering background. But by adding these settings, you know you probably shouldn’t pick the settings that will make your prized album of Beethoven pieces sound like a telephone conversation. It’s a small detail, but it can make a big difference.
This program will also normalize your audio files as it converts them. This means you can make all your files the same volume. Everyone hates it when the commercials on TV are really loud and the shows barely a whisper. This fixes the same problem for your audio library. No longer will you have to dive for the volume when that one track comes on that is way louder than the rest.
