I introduction of APE format

APE is a lossless compressed audio format. Huge WAV audio files can be accessed through Monkey.

Audio software is "slimmed down" and compressed into APE. Similarly, apes can be compressed by monkeys.

The audio is restored to WAV and then burned to CD. Sometimes it is used for network audio file transmission, because the compressed APE file capacity is less than half of the WAV source file, which can save transmission time. More importantly, through the monkey's

The WAV file obtained after audio decompression and restoration can be exactly the same as the source file before compression. So APE is called "lossless audio compression format", monkey's.

Audio is called "lossless audio compression software". Unlike using professional data compression software such as WinZip or WinRAR to compress audio files, compressed APE audio files can be played directly.

Second, ape players:

1, Foobar2000 (mainly recommended)

Foobar2000 is an audio playback software developed by Peter Pawlowski, the main developer of winamp.

Pawlowski left the winamp development team because he was not satisfied with the development direction of winamp. Although the Foobar playback interface is simple, it doesn't have many skins like Winamp, which can provide very good sound quality, and it doesn't need an external sound plug-in like DFX like Winamp.

The latest version can be downloaded from official website.

2、Winamp

Monkey's audio includes Winamp's APE playback plug-in. After loading the monkey's,

In the process of audio, a plug-in "in_APE.dll" will be installed in Winamp, so that Winamp can also play APE files.

3. Windows Media Player

APE can also be played after installing the corresponding plug-in.

Third, format conversion.

1. You can use EAC or other audio acquisition software to convert a CD into a Wav file, and then compress it into an ape through Monkey's audio.

2. You can also directly convert the CD into APE.

3, apes into MP3

APE can be restored to Wav by decompressing the monkey's audio, and then Wav can be directly compressed to Mp3 by the monkey's audio.

4.APE is directly burned into a CD with a burner.

Download the plug-in named nxMyAPE.dll (below) and copy the file directly to Nero's shared\audioplugins directory, or

C:\ Program File \ General

Files\Ahead\AudioPlugins\, Nero can recognize APE files, and thus can directly burn APE to CD.
