Problem description:
1. What software is used to open it?
2. Where can I download it?
3. Is there any music format file with better sound quality than this format?
Analysis:
I introduction of APE format
APE is a lossless compressed audio format. Huge WAV audio files can be "slimmed down" by the monkey's audio and compressed into APE. Similarly, APE can also be restored to WAV through monkey's audio, 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, the WAV file obtained after decompression and restoration of monkey's audio can be exactly the same as the source file before compression. Therefore, APE is called "lossless audio compression format" and 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. Peter Pawlowski left winamp's development team because he was not satisfied with winamp's development direction. 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.

For information about foobar2000 and the best settings, please refer to the official forum, where the latest version will be downloaded and exchanged.

2、Winamp
Monkey's audio includes Winamp's APE playback plug-in. In the process of installing monkey audio, a plug-in "in_APE.dll" will be installed in Winamp, so 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.
Monkey's audio 3.97

4.APE is directly burned into a CD with a burner.
Download the plug-in named nxMyAPE.dll (as shown below), and directly copy the file to the shared \audioplugins directory of the recording software Nero, or C: \ Program files \ Common files \ ahead \ Audio Plugins \, so that Nero can identify the APE file, and thus can directly record the APE to a CD.
