DESCRIPTION
AudialHub is designed to chop through the mighty jungle of sound formats, clearing a path for your music, podcasts, lectures, white noise, etc.
  • Easy as 1-2-3, simple as Do-Re-Mi.
  • AudialHub can convert audio files (and even the audio inside video files!) in as little as three steps:
  • 1: Drag your files into the window.
  • 2: Choose the format you want to convert to.
  • 3: Click start.
  • You can count "listening to your stuff however you want" as step 4, but that part's fun.
Want more control? No problem. You can have it both ways 'round. AudialHub comes with an extensive set of Advanced controls to tweak the encoding process however you please. Don't stop 'til you get enough.

AudialHub comes from the creators of iSquint and the Eddy-award-winning VisualHub with an all-new Leopard-inspired interface — inviting to newbies, yet powerful enough for experts.
Enough to prove it's all for you.

Key Features:
  • Conversion from dozens of audio types to popular formats like AAC, MP3, WMA, AIFF, WAV, Apple Lossless, 3G (cell phones), Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, and even Audio and MP3 CDs!
  • Audio tracks inside video files can also be converted!
  • Common tags (Artist, Album, etc) are automatically passed when applicable.
  • Up to 16 hours of audio can be converted to a single MP3 CD.
  • Easy-to-use Trim capabilities to narrow down short segments of audio.
  • Quick Preview capability to check out compression quality and Trim settings before a full conversion.
  • Dynamic file queue, allowing mid-conversion changes or additions, Pause/Resume, and an "always ready" Assembly Line Mode!
  • Run multiple simultaneous conversions in separate queues with separate settings.
  • Growl notifications, Dock progress indicator, and AppleScripting automation support!
  • Normalization, audio track selection, multiple decoder options, and direct access to add custom low-level command-line settings!
  • Detailed Users Guide and Help Center.

XIAOPANGZI  Note to all users: Be careful not to scroll down when converting files—at least by clicking in the empty scrollbar space when converting WMA to AAC—as it appears to hang the application. I've tried it with various lists of files, and the moment that you try to scroll, it will immediately halt all progress for as many hours as you wish to wait, regardless of which file is being converted in the list. It doesn't act like a normal hang, though, in the sense of freezing things up, because the application doesn't need to be force-quit, but all progress does halt indefinitely as soon as you attempt to scroll, and then you have to start the process again from the previous successfully converted file just to be safe. You just need to Cancel and Clear All, and then add the files back again. It is definitely not a matter of a corrupted file, as one might expect.

Another thing I noticed is that nothing happens at all, sometimes, when converting WAV to Lossless AAC, if the Open Destination Folder box is checked, but conversion will take place if you uncheck that option in the user panel.

Anyway, I hope that the company fixes these issues soon, because it's especially hard to resist scrolling.

Nevertheless, AudialHub and VisualHub are definitely my choices for media conversion, after having tried all of the other available ones.  (Version 1.0.1)

UNDEADBYDAWN  What advantage, if any, does this have over MAX? Given that I cannot convert even 1 full track with the Trial version it is impossible to get a good comparison without buying. NOT useful at all.

I need a compelling reason to buy. Anyone?  (Version 1.0)

MAJYCKE  If it's as good as VisualHub, I'm sure it's good. Only thing I'd really like to see is support for SHN too, as well as FLAC. As a regular downloader of concerts, SHN is still a format I deal with a lot, and would be nice to have an app that handled both.  (Version 1.0)
