Python Audio Tools is a collection of audio handling programs that work from the command line. These include programs for CD extraction, track conversion from one audio format to another, track renaming and retagging, track identification, CD burning from tracks, and more. It supports internationalized track filenames and metadata using Unicode. It works with high-definition, multi-channel audio as well as CD-quality. Track conversion uses multiple CPUs or CPU cores if available to greatly speed the transcoding process. Track metadata can be retrieved from FreeDB or FreeDB-compatible servers. Audio formats supported are WAV, FLAC, WavPack, MP3, Ogg Vorbis, M4A, and more. License: GNU General Public License v2 Changes: Support for non-CD quality audio was improved through automatic resampling, dithering, and channel reduction when necessary. This allows 24-bit audio to be played through OSS-compatible sound devices, non-44.1kHz audio tracks to be burnt to CD, 5.1 channel tracks to be transcoded to MP3, and so forth.
