CDex 1.70 Beta 2

CDex is a tool to do all sorts of things audio related. Mainly focused on ripping and converting, things like turning your home CD collection into an mp3 collection on your hard drive become extremely easy. With built in support for many encoders you wont find any shortage of options for your media files.

CDex can extract the data directly from an Audio CD, which is generally called a CD Ripper or a CDDA utility. The resulting audio file can be a plain WAV file (useful for making compilation audio CDs) or the ripped audio data can be compressed using an audio encoder. Many encoders are supported, to name a few:
