This is a great tool and does what is says it does. The quality of the resulting audio files is also quite good. There is a slight notice of degradation, but it is certainly better than trying to digitize records, tapes, etc....and way faster. I didn't give it an overall score of 10 because I haven't been thrilled with the version 4 release. It has some niceties and the ability to multi-thread encodings is an awesome feature in theory. In practice, however, my recordings had skips sporadically in the resulting files. I've used it on a 3.02GHz Pentium IV with a gig of ram and no other cpu intensive applications runnning. I have yet to try it on my dual core machine. I would have thought that the machine I use it on is capable of multi-threading, but I have not been successful with it. However, when I go back to the single-threaded mode, it works like a charm, just not as fast when trying to convert at least an album worth of tracks. |
