  Batching MP3’s, 44khz Aiff’s, etc.. to 48khz Aiff. What application do you use?

  What does everyone use to batch convert audio files?

  We used to use mAC3dec, at it was great!
  But now it is incompatible with Tiger, and no one has updated the program.

  Looking at QTAmateur, seems just OK but some files it will not convert for no apparent reason.

  Where i work the editor’s assistants MUST prep all audio to AIFF @ 48khz prior to giving it to the editor.

  Compressor2, it’s free, easy, and will batch them for you unlike qt pro.

  yes, i know Compressor 2 is great for this… BUT

  its free with FCP and even tho we have a very large volume license, we want to be able to do this on any and all of our assistant stations as well….

  Really the batch export ability should be available in Quicktime Pro.

  COpy all of the files to itunes. Set your prefered encoding in Itunes (48 with no compression) and bactch select the files and use the convert feature in itunes.

  They will even have the aiff’s attached to them and
