CDex 是個免費的軟體,它主要的功能是可以將音樂 CD 中的音軌轉錄成 WAV 或者 MP3 格式的檔案。
或許你會認為你只要用音效卡就可以將音樂 CD 裡面的音軌轉出來了,為什麼還要用 CDex 呢?因為用音效卡轉錄 CD 有個缺點:在轉錄的過程中,CD 中的訊號會先從 CD 轉成「類比訊號」,然後才被音效卡轉為「數位訊號」。在這個音訊轉換的過程中難免會造成聲音品質的流失!而 CDex 則是直接從 CD 上讀取訊號,然後轉成 WAV 或者 MP3 格式。CDex 已經內建錄製 MP3 的編碼器:LAME,所以可以直接將 CD 音軌轉為 MP3 格式;也可以將 WAV 檔案轉成 MP3。另外,CDex 也可以選擇使用其它的 MP3 編碼器,如:Xing encoder。此外,CDDB 功能當然也是不可或缺的重要功能。CDDB 功能可以讓你免於輸入歌名、歌手、專輯名稱等等資訊,因為 CDex 會自動從網際網路上抓取資料回來。但是,抓不抓得到資料就要看 CDDB 資料庫裡面有沒有囉!目前當然還是以英文專輯的資料容易找到。如果你願意的話,可以到 CDDB 資料庫網站上去建立你喜愛的專輯資料!CDex 現在支援多語介面,可以直接選取繁體中文了!What's CDex?
CDex can extract the data directly (digital) from an Audio CD, which is generally called a CD Ripper or a CDDA utility. The resulting audio file can be a plain WAV file (useful for making compilation audio CDs) or the ripped audio data can be compressed using an audio encoder. Many encoders are supported, to name a few: * Lame MP3 encoder
* Internal MP2 encoder
* APE lossles audio format
* Ogg Vorbis encoder
* The Windows MP3 encoder (Fraunhofer MP3 encoder)
* NTT VQF encoder
* FAAC encoder
* Windows WMA8 encoderIn addition, WAV files on the hard drive can be converted to a Compressed Audio File (and visa versa). CDex also supports many audio file tag formats like the ID3V1 and ID3V2 tags, which can be automatically inserted as part of the ripping process.Feature List * Direct recording of multiple tracks
* Read / store album information from/to the cdplayer.ini file
* Read / store album information from/to a local and/or remote CD Database (CDDB)
* Support CD-Text (if your CD-drive supports it)
* Advanced jitter correction (based on the cd-paranoia ripping library)
* Indicates track progress and jitter control
* Normalization of audio signal
* Supports many CD-Drive from many manufacters
* Conversion of external WAV files
* Support for M3U and PLS play list files
* Best of all, it's free (GPL license, source code available)
* Serveral languages are supported
