Converting .ape files to mp3

Hi! Just entered this forum. New "in town". I 've downloaded a winRAR-file, unpacked it, and there were some 10 .ape files there. I want to convert that music to a CD. How do I do that?

well first you need a program. Here is a program http://www.litexmedia.com/files/i-sound.exe




THis program should do it. If you need any help or any other programs my aim sn is Daproffessat34 and my e-mail t34daproffessa@hotmail.com

Need more help, I'm afraid!

Got the message. I've downloaded the program, but when I want to find the .ape files, the system come up with the message that it can't find MP3 files, which of course is right. Where do I go wrong?

Hi sent you some emails. Seems like the program isn't working like I hoped. Maybe I misunderstand the program?

I don't have the program installed, but i can still help you out. Take me step by step on what you did, but if I understood you correctly the file wouldnt open?

A lot of software that will handle the APE to MP3 function equal shareware.
dBpowerAmp Music Converter 11.5 will give you a 30 day trial ($14 to buy).

well there are free ones they are just hard to find, but i know some.

APE = lossless audio
mp3 = compressed lossy audio

If you want to make a CD, you dont want to go APE->MP3->CD you will lose quality in the process.

you want to go APE->WAV->CD or just APE->CD

goto http://www.monkeysaudio.com/

The program that creates APE files has a built in decompressor as well and will give you the original CD files that were compressed. No loss!


winamp also has a WAV diskwriter output , but i recommend you use the monkeysaudio above.

Got two ansvers that gave the solution. The both said the same thing: You don't go from ape via MP3 to CD, you go either ape to WAW and then to CD, or directly, the also set me to http://www.monkeysaudio.com, where the solution was found. Thanks a lot, both of you!!
