- ReplayGain integration.
- Batch-analyze thousands of files quickly,
- save the results to disk,
- convert to Apple SoundCheck format,
- or apply the changes directly during encoding.
- Metadata preservation between formats.

Example Usage
simple Examples
Convert a folder full of FLAC files into Lame MP3s:
Get-AudioFile *.flac | Export-AudioFile "Lame MP3" -Directory C:\Output
Lame uses VBR -q 3 by default. To list the default switches:
Get-AudioEncoderDefaultSettingList "Lame MP3"
To get all the available settings for Lame:
Get-AudioEncoderAvailableSettingList "Lame MP3"
All the available cmdlets are documented. For examples and a list of parameters use:
Get-Help Export-AudioFile -Full
advanced Examples
Add ReplayGain to a entire FLAC library and treat each directory as a separate album:
Get-ChildItem C:\Users\Myself\Music -Directory -Recurse | % { $_ | Get-ChildItem -File -Filter *.flac | Measure-AudioFile ReplayGain -PassThru | Save-AudioMetadata }
Convert a whole FLAC library to VBR AAC, with SoundCheck tags calculated from album ReplayGain information:
Get-ChildItem C:\Users\Myself\Music -Filter *.flac -Recurse | Get-AudioFile | Export-AudioFile "Apple AAC" -Directory "C:\Output\{Artist}\{Album}" -Setting @{AddSoundCheck = "Album"} -Name "{TrackNumber} - {Title}"
Convert a whole FLAC library to VBR MP3, with ReplayGain directly applied to the resulting volume levels:
Get-ChildItem C:\Users\Myself\Music -Filter *.flac -Recurse | Get-AudioFile | Export-AudioFile "Lame MP3" -Directory "C:\Output\{Artist}\{Album}" -Setting @{ApplyGain = "Album"} -Name "{TrackNumber} - {Title}"
