Professional...

...Because it does not stop converting when an input file is corrupt.

...Because it writes conversion log files.

...Because it gives professional sounding results

...Because it includes many pro-sound file formats

...and because it has been proven to function over the past 25 (!) years in projects with hundreds of thousands of sound files.

You can hear BarbaBatch in five out of ten top selling games, in the major navigation devices and in countless CD masters.

50+ formats

BarbaBatch converts 50+ formats and its conversion quality and speed are unrivaled and for over a decade BarbaBatch has been winning awards and acclaim for this.

High end sample rate conversion

BarbaBatch, with its unrivaled samplerate conversion algorithm, supports files like BWF, Sonic Solutions and 32 bit float files. It supports 192kHz sampling rate and the Redbook CD image extraction has made it popular among mastering engineers.

Telephony & game audio

The wide range of telephony formats together with dynamic compression and samplerate conversion that make low quality audio sound not as low as you'd expect, has made BarbaBatch exell in telephony audio.

Smooth and fast batch capabilities and extensive logging, allowing tens of thousands of files to be converted to multiple output formats in one run make BarbaBatch the production choice for 6 out of 10 top selling computer games producers.

Automated CD ripping of faded snippets to many streaming sound formats make BarbaBatch ideal for delivery of web based audio.

Overview

From the Finder you drag files and folders (multiple file formats are no problem) onto the BarbaBatch input window.

Then you select one or more predefined conversion settings, or you create new settings for a conversion. You select the output destination folder and you hit Go. For each selected conversion a folder will be created and the complete input hierarchy (sub folders and all) will be recreated in the required file format.

General Settings

For each file type you can set bit rate (kbits/sec) or number of bits per word up to 64 bits.

BarbaBatch offers the highest possible quality in samplerate conversion. Samplerates can range from 1000 Hz to 192 kHz.

Channel processing is flexible. You can mix stereo to mono or vice versa, copy just single channels left or right, create interleaved stereo from split stereo files and vice versa.

Dynamics and gain processing

There is a normalizer that normalizes to a user set ceiling, but also a look-ahead gating algorithm with very intuitive controls, and a look-ahead peak limiter that makes your audio blast even through the smallest of speakers. The gate and peak limiters are built to straighten out speech, but are often used on musical material as well.
