STEPHANCORLEY  Tried to convert simple wav files to mp3 and aac.

And ... .. well ... it doesn't work correct. Very low bitrates and the AAC files have strange hearable artifacts.

I do not like the interface but that's more of a personal thing but it should be user friendly and its not.

This needs a 100% overhaul to be any good.

FOULGER  Sorry to disagree but I have had this product for years and it has always worked. I have always had prompt reply from the developer. Respectfully suggest you bring all your OS up to date, repair permissions & run diskwarrior and then install afresh. It may be that it will then work.

RIPPEDOFF  GOT RIPPED OFF!!! The product does not work and the developer refuses to respond. His website (dekorte.com) states that he will help if you send him the file log of the failed conversion. He simply ignores people. THIS PRODUCT IS A SCAM.

GREENALIEN  Looks like a handy app to have but completely put off by the restrictive licensing. If you plan to upgrade your Mac you have to buy this app again. Meanwhile others who steal the app don't suffer this inconvenience. Some software developers need to get a clue about piracy and how to offer incentives to buy their apps. Browny points for licensing to the individual rather than machine (so can be installed on multiple machines).

MAC MAIL  Money hungry crap!

SHOTGUNWEDDINGS  2 Things turned me off this software.

1 - Machine specific licensing sucks, I go through machines like some people go through shoes. I'm not paying for a new license for each machine upgrade I do.

2 - The software is too unpredictable. Works on some file types and does nothing with the other half.

WTH is with the constant unknown updates and the crazy dates instead of some version number?

PETERPAN23  Bought SC due of his easy to use drag&convert GUI. xAct and Max have much more fine-tuning possibilities but for a quick job SC is great - so I thought. Unfortunately I did tested only some mp3 files befor paying. After more accurate tests with conversions my I have a clear recommendation: DO NOT BUY THIS SOFTWARE!!!!! Most of the option are completly useless.

ANY Format => OGG

files with 112 Kbps no matter which conversion rate is chosen.

Apple Lossless => AAC

default 110 kbps VBR. With any other sampling rate SC stops immediatly without error message

AIFF or FLAC or WAV or WavPack => ACC

default gets 131 Kbps VBR - lower sampling rates works, higher than 147 Kbps not. 320 Kbps gets also 131

AIFF => MP4

default 125 VBR - higher no possible

AIFF or FLAC or WAV or => M4A ACC

default makes files with 137, with other sampling rates e.g. 112 or 192 no files at all

Apple Lossles to MP3

VBR no works, CBR only with defaul bit rate of 128

Conclusion: If you like to lose money then throw it out of the window. That brings more fun. I promise!

SOUNDMAN  My previous comment about this application has been deleted. Why is that and who did it?

This app. is one of the jokes of the internet.

I download every supposed new version just for the laugh it gives me to open it up and give it a simple aifc or aiff file to convert to wave or mp3. Of course, it doesn't work. I get my laugh and trash the app. That's the way you've got to view SoundConverter.....it's a joke!

CORPSECORPS  I might get this if 3 things changed:

1. It actually did something correctly once.

2. There wasn't a mysterious undocumented update every 5 minutes.

3. If it used a real version number instead of dates that keeps changing format.

MADMACMAD  Well & again !

I use this App now about 3 Years on 3 Different Computers. First put the APP in the Application Folder. Not in a other Folder or Location because it won't work. Well i do always Conversation from AIFF to AC3. I can do it also with Compressor but it takes to much time to make the Settings for 1000 Files. That's why i bought this App. There is no App on the Market with can do simple via Drag&Drop Batch conversation from AIFF or WAV to AC3 for DVD Authoring. Also if you use the Compressor from Apple you have to make your own Settings with Dialog Normalisation set @ -31 and not -27 Like Appe did. Well i have never had some Issues with this Software...but well i only use a few of the supported Conversation Methodes and all are working fine for me.

P.S. MP3 is CRAP !!!!!!!!!

5 Stars for a really cheap App that works !!!!
