Advanced mode

Configure encoding parameters, loudness targets, and processing options.

Format Selection

Choose AAC, Opus, MP3, PCM (WAV), or FLAC.

  • Sample Rate (PCM only): 44.1-192 kHz
  • Bit Depth (PCM only): 16, 24, 32-float, 64-float
  • Bitrate (AAC, Opus, MP3): 12 kbit/s minimum, encoder-specific maximum
  • Compression Level (FLAC, Opus): 0 (no compression) to 10 (maximum compression)

Loudness Targets

Target (LUFS) and TP limit (dB) control loudness processing for normalization and ReplayGain tagging.

Custom Loudness: Configure custom LUFS I and TP targets. Values convert to negative automatically. When disabled, uses EBU R128 defaults (-23 LUFS, -1 dBTP) if Normalize is selected.

Processing Options

Normalize: Applies loudness correction using BS.1770-5 algorithm

  • Uses custom values (Custom Loudness enabled) or EBU R128 standard (disabled)
  • Alters audio data to match target loudness

Write RG tags: Writes ReplayGain metadata to audio files

  • Uses custom values (Custom Loudness enabled) or EBU R128 defaults
  • Writes metadata only; does not alter audio data
  • Cannot be used with Normalize
  • Not available for PCM source files

Do not transcode: Preserves original audio encoding while writing tags

  • Available only when Write RG tags is enabled
  • Writes metadata only; does not alter audio data
  • Not available for PCM source files

Speech: Optimizes encoding for voice content

  • Selects Opus codec automatically
  • Applies VoIP-optimized compression
  • Uses speech-specific normalization when combined with Normalize
  • Not for music content
