MediaHuman Audio Converter for Windows

Quick summary

MediaHuman Audio Converter lets you play purchased or downloaded music on virtually any device by converting audio files into widely supported formats. It has a simple interface and is free to use, making it easy to change file types so your music works on the player of your choice.

Supported formats and codecs

• Apple Lossless (ALAC) is supported for users who prefer lossless compression.
• FLAC and WAV for high-quality, lossless audio.
• MP3 and AAC for broad compatibility with most players and mobile devices.
• OGG and WMA among other common containers and codecs.
• MP4, AIFF, and 3GP for video and device-specific needs.

Main features

• Drag-and-drop convenience for converting single files or batches while retaining your original folder layout.
• Automatic splitting of disc images using CUE sheets found in the same folder, producing individual tracks.
• Built-in lookup for album artwork using online services to tag converted files.
• Direct integration with iTunes (now Music on macOS) so converted tracks can be added to your library or placed into a selected playlist.
• Ability to extract audio streams from video files, producing standalone audio tracks.

Output folder handling

Selecting where converted files end up is less intuitive than other parts of the program. After conversion you can open the output directory via the File menu’s “Open Output Folder” command, then move files to your preferred location manually. Alternatively, you can set a permanent destination in the application’s Preferences before converting to avoid the extra steps.

How it stacks up against alternatives

• Some other utilities let you choose the destination folder directly from the main conversion dialog.
• Certain tools can convert an entire folder tree at once and retain structure automatically.
• A few programs, such as XLD and Max, support producing multiple output formats from one batch in a single pass.

Final thoughts

Although the destination-folder workflow could be smoother, MediaHuman Audio Converter is a straightforward, user-friendly app that covers most conversion needs. It supports a wide range of formats, offers useful metadata and album-art features, and makes it simple to prepare audio for almost any player or device.
