Ahh, wasn't aware that was a requirement. Of course you can always just
bring it in, convert it and take it back out. Maybe too much rigamarole.

Hi. I don't want the resulting conversions to end up in iTunes. I just want
conversion from ogg to mp3 without iTunes trying to import anything into the
library.
I wasn't sure if this was possible.

I'm curious. Why not use iTunes to do the conversion. Did the Ogg import
plugins previously mentioned on this list stop working? I haven't tried this
for a long time.

Hi Paul,
If you're looking for simple conversion of ogg to mp3 on the Mac, Erik's
suggestion of Max will probably work for you:
http://sbooth.org/Max/
Max is donationware. But Eric Caron is correct that Amadeus Pro or its Lite
version has a powerful batch processor that will also handle many functions
besides simple conversions (e.g., fades, adding/trimming silence, conversion of
sound quality, normalization, and lots more). This shareware audio editing
program had a recent major upgrade, so the price is now $60. If you want to
try the trial version, just Google the name together with macupdate, which will
give you the link to the program and the web site. (It's also sold on the Mac
App Store, but trial downloads are not supported in the App Store). The Blind
Cool Tech podcast on batch processing with Amadeus Pro is Dane's podcast from
two years earlier.
HTH. Cheers,
Esther

Hi Paul,
It is not free but Amadeus Pro or Amadeus Pro lite does a great job
with conversions and also is a nice audio editor. it is at the app store.
You can do single or batch conversions. There is even a tutorial on
Blindcool tech on doing large numbers of conversions with Amadeus Pro.

Hi. I'm looking for an accessible audio converter. I need to convert ogg files
into mp3 files. I have tunesify, but I find it less than intuitive to use.
For some reason, even though I have selected the folder with its subfolders, it
doesn't seem to want to convert the ogg files. I also can't tell whether it
will convert the contents of subfolders in the original folder.
Anything better out there?
I'm use to using gold wave or the audio stripper from NCH software.
However, I don't like the heavy-handedness of NCH when it comes to reinstalling
their software or putting it on more than one machine.
Thanks.
