Flac to Any Pro App Reviews

Great product. Very fast and reliable.

It cant convert to HD audio. Example : want to convert a 24bit/192khz FLAC to AIFF… it limits you to 1000 kb/s!!!!!! Absolutely useless.

Excellent App - works flawlessly Needed an app to convert FLAC to MP3, this app did the job. Easy to use and fast..GREAT APP

The FLAC to ALAC conversion works fine and is fast, except for one pretty huge problem: My FLACS are whole album FLACS, all songs in a single file. The input side of the application ignores all the Meta Tag information relating to track #, song name, and artist name (track artist), and splilts out an ALAC with no track information. A waste of money for me.

Nice little app that does exactly as advertised. The feature to send songs directly to the iTunes library after they are converted is pretty cool.

Presets not deleted! FIX please.

Very well done, easy to use, highly recommended. Excellent feature set.

This app converts FLAC files to a bunch of possible “other” formats. My only wish is that it would convert directly to iTunes Plus (256, VBR). There is an iTunes m4a option @ 256, but not provision for switching on VBR. So I usually convert to AIFF and then use iTunes to down-convert to iTunes Plus. The two step should not be required however. What it does, it does well…except for this one thing.

I haven’t had one problem with this ap. It converts whole albums in seconds flawlessly.

Flac to ALAC first time every time!

I bought the app prior to this release (1.8). The previous version was problematic. The conversions would truncate the output files. HOWEVER, after updating to the current version (1.8), this problem is gone. It works great; the conversion are really fast. Perhaps there was an incompatibility between OS versions.

I bought this full version after trying the free lite version. Its so easy to use and incredibly fast at converting files. No learning time needed.

I recently bought a Pono, which I am very much enjoying. I bought the Pono (actually contributed to the Kickstarter) for several reasons. One, I am excited to have my music in as high of a resolution as is possible and still make sense. Two, because Apple is one of the wealthiest companies on the planet. Do I really need to be buying all my music from iTunes? Pono songs are in FLAC. While the Pono player sounds awesome, it is not practical for me to bring my iPhone AND a Pono everywhere I go. Especially if I am listening on medium quality headphones. Converting FLAC to ALAC was my solution. As I say in the title, this product is fairly simple to use. There are a lot of controls and presets you can mess around with. This made it a little slower to get started than I think is necessary. If I took the time to understand all the options I’m sure I would appreciate them. Since my task is pretty basic, once I figured out how to do the basic conversion I was able to convert about 5 albums in a matter of a couple minutes.

Just installed and converted Meddle from FLAC to ALAC in about 20 seconds and listening to in iTunes. What else do you need to know?

Easy to use, good interface….good purchase!

Running this on MacBook Pro, 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7, OS X 10.10.4. It does exactly what it says it does, does it well and integrates into a workflow easily. My use case is that I am a recent Mac convert and have 400+ albums all coded using flac, which we all know is not a format that Apple supports. In fact, it is not just iTunes which doesn’t speak flac, the entire OS treats it like some sort of heresy, which is to be acknowledged but never encouraged. After hours playing and researching, i decided to convert everything to ALAC for use with my Sonos system and will deal with the smaller portable, storage limited devices later. I like the drag and drop capability to select the music to convert, I like that the output destination is sort of remembered across opening and closing the application and it converts quickly (the music is on a NAS, so there is access time involved). The User Interface is simple and after a bit of experimenting, you can figure out how to put it into your workflow. I would like it if they added the capability to convert from other formats than flac so that when I compress for the portabie devices, I don’t have to find another solution - this doesn’t impact my rating, but it would be a great addition. Well worth the $5.99.

Apparently, you can’t ask the program to convert many files at once and expect it to catch all of them. I do about 600 albums over a week, a handful at a time and half the files were skipped. Who has time to do this one album at a time?

My advice: Try the free version before dropping your hard earned cash for this app! The “pro” version is actually not very good. This app lacks simple options like: - Put converted files in source folder - Delete original files after conversion - Filename options - cue support - preference settings Also, the interface looks ok in the pictures but in use is rather bad. Bottom line: this is an Ok app if you’re just converting a few files. But if you need anything advanced, forget about it.

does an ok job of converting media but just dumps files into 1 big folder and does nothing to help you manage them. i would at least like it to retain the folder structure of the original files. something like: ARTIST/ALBUM/TRACK.FLAC after conversion into something like CONVERTED/ARTIST/ALBUM/TRACK.M4A or something like that. let me assign and output folder, then maintain the same kind of folder structure of the original. do this and it would be golden but force me to manually create an all new file folder structure and i want to slam my head into the nearest brick wall. FAIL!

I tried converting flac files to ALAC with Flac Pro. It lost data and scramble the file so that I could not stream from one mac running itunes to another mac. Not recommended. I tried FLACTunes FLAC Convert and it worked perfectly.
