Automator For Mp3 to WAV

I was wondering if anyone out there familiar with Automator knew of a way to automate converting MP3s to WAVs. It would be nice to just cntl click on an MP3 and have the automator open qiucktime and convert the audio file to wave. I never use automator but it seems like something someone would have already figured out how to work. Thanks for any help

no way!
you've got a java api for j2se: the javasound api but it can't be available in j2me. best thing to do is to use a soft (like cdex,...) to convert mp3 to wav or, if you have an available server (like tomcat), create a app that uses javasound api to convert your songs when you put them on the server (via an admin console)
peace

  • MP3 to WAV Codec in Processor

    Hi,
    I�m trying to add Codec to an processor because I want convert MP3 to WAV.
    When y obtain PlugInManager.getPlugInList (with type=4) only obtain com.ibm.media.codec.audio.ACMCodec.
    After make processor.realize(), I inspect the processor CodecChain (before I have added the ACMCodec when processor was in Configured state). But when I inspect the supportedOutputFormat and supportedInputFormat of ACMCodec, don�t find MP3 anywhere.
    What am I doing wrong?, Have I install any codec for ACM?, Are There any Plug-in for MP3 to WAV??
    thanks.

  • Setting Quicktime as default mp3 and wav player

    Hello
    I know this is a pretty basic question, but how do I set Quicktime to be my defualt player for mp3 and wav files?
    If i select a wav file and then tick the "Always Open With" box it only does it for that particular file and I can't find any related options within the program.
    any help will be very much appreciated.
    thank you

    Highlight a mp3 with the mouse, then get info from the finder. (Right click or click+control key.) A window will open up with the mp3 info. Scroll down to where it says, "Open with:." Click on the tab to pick an application to open the mp3 with. If Quicktime doesn't show up in the drop down menu, pick OTHER at the bottom of the menu. The Application window (folder) should open up, if not, navigate to you Application folder. Scroll down to Quicktime and pick for the application to open the mp3 with. Done. Do the same with a wav file.
    Best bet is to click on CHANGE ALL in the info window. This will change all mp3s and wavs file to open with Quicktime.

  • How to convert MP4 on iTunes to MP3 or WAV for Windows Media Player?

    I have purchased lots of audio books online, but until recently had not purchased much music. I recently purchased an album, and it downloaded nicely into iTunes, and of course I can access it on my 80 gig iPod. But when I tried to move a copy into Windows Media Player so I could copy it into a little MP3 player that I bought for special use, I found that I could not get a copy to convert. DOes anybody know how I can convert a Store purchase from MP4 to MP3 or WAV file for use with Windows Media Player?

    +"I recently purchased an album... so I could copy it into a little MP3 player..."+
    You shopped at the wrong place. The iTunes Music Store does not sell (and has never sold) anything in MP3 format. If you want MP3s for your MP3 player, shop at online stores that sell MP3s, such as amazon.com.
    As for any iTunes DRM-encumbered tracks you are already stuck with, take Zevoneer's advice and use iTunes to burn them to an audio CD.

  • Converting an MP3 to WAV -- How can I convert an MP3 to wav format, 16 bit

    How can I convert an MP3 to wav format, 16 bit, 44,1 khz? I like the program Switch which I know can convert MP3s, but how to I set it up for the specific settings that I need?

    Just import into a logic session. Then bounce at the specs you require. Logic or Waveburner, iTunes and even Quicktime I think can each do this easily.
    A question though. I am assuming you are converting an MP3 to 44.1/16 bit just so you can play the file in a consumer quality CD player?? IF so - that makes sense.
    But if you are doing this because you think it will improve the sound quality of your MP3, I will save you some time here. It won't improve the sound quality at all. It will just turn the MP3 into a larger audio file.
    44.1/16 bit resolution enables you to have a much better sounding file than MP3 formats, but not by going at it this way.
    No offense to you if you know all of this already. I am assuming that you may not know this - because if you did you would also likely know how to convert an audio file.

  • Python / Audio Conversion - I want to convert mp3 to wav

    Hi, Ive dabbled very little in actual coding, wrote one python app that these forums really helped me make, and Ive programmed in VBScript and SQL Server, but all academic, nothing for my own uses.  I need a program to convert mp3's to .wav's that can then be burned in 'Recorder' to burn the audio disc.  I know there are many scripts like this floating around, but I want to do my own, problem is, im lost.  I seem to have 2 main problems, getting the file names into a list or tuple,  and then actually running the commands to convert using a for loop using lame or mpg321.
    this bash script uses mpg321 and sox,
    #!/bin/bash
    # allmp3wav
    for i in *.mp3; do
    echo "$i"
    tgt=$(echo "$i" | sed -e "s/mp3/wav/")
    mpg123 -b 10000 -s -r 44100 "$i" | sox -t raw -r 44100 -s -w -c2 - /var/cdrom/"$tgt"
    done
    This works fine and I understand the code.  Its saying for every file that ends in .mp3, run these commands, which do the coding.  The only problem is, this doesnt work in python, since its not pythong   Can someone give me a little bit of help?  Dont give me the program, or give me to much info, links would be great.
    1 - Need to Get Directory
    2 - Loop through all the .mp3 files and add them to an array.
    3 - create a sub directory named "wav"
    mkdir ~/wav
    4 - copy all the mp3's to "wav"
    cp ARRAy to wav/
    5 - convert all .mp3's to wav
    6 - delete the copied mp3's from .wav directory
    for .mp3
    rm
    7 - tell me how many wavs were created.
    for .wav
    count + 1
    That is just a rough flow chart of what I need to do, and as you can see its pretty bare as of now.  Also, I imagine to run mpg321 or lame commands, I need some sort of lame or mpg321 module?  Ive read the python wiki for for loops and lists and tuples, but I need more info.  Thanks, Justin.

    Alright that helped alot, its almost working now, I am using Popen wrong still I assume, here is what I got.
    import os
    import subprocess
    here = os.getcwd()
    ctr = 0
    for file in os.listdir(here):
        name, ext = os.path.splitext(file)
        if ext == ".mp3":
                    p = subprocess.Popen("mpg123 -w " + name + ".wav " + name + ext , stdout=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True)
                    ctr = ctr + 1
    print ctr
    That executes, but gives this error,

    If i remove the subprocess popen, and just print name + ext and use the counter, it prints out both file name together, and how many mp3's it processed, 2.  So i know the program is doing what I want, im just converting wrong.  Thanks again.
    here is whats in the directory, there is more then mp3's, so I know it is filtering the files properly thanks to your splittext.

  • MP3 and WAV tagging Prog

    I have hundreds of albums ripped into my PC and I am trying to get all of my MP3's and WAVs tagged in the same uniform way. I want to see if any of you know of a program that I can download that will do what I am looking for. I want all of my songs to be named as follows:?0 Tom Sawyer02 Red Barchetta03 YYZ04 Limelight?As you can see I want the songs to simply have the song number and title and that is it. Over the years I have ripped CDs before I really thought of ripping them in a uniform way and now I am having to spend countless hours doing it manually. Before I spend countless more hours perhaps someone here knows of a great program that will take my songs and tag them this way. I need it to cover both MP3 and WAV if possible. Thanks!

    Try mp3 Tag Studio at www.magnusbrading.com

  • Converting From Mp3 to Wav and also dividing a song.

    Is it possible to convert an mp3 to .wav and then split the entire song into 10-second wavs. If there is a way, please share. Thank you. I'm using Quicktime Pro

    Nathan, welcome to these discussions.
    Open the .mp3 file with QT Pro.
    Set the "in and out" (selection markers) to the ten seconds you wish to convert and use "Copy" from the Edit menu.
    Open a new QT Player window (Control-N) and then Control-V (paste).
    Choose "Export" (File menu) and then choose Sound to Wave.
    Repeat for all the conversion you want to make.

  • Convert mp3 to Wav?

    Hi, i'm looking for a software that would allow me to convert mp3 to wav files. I have to upload files but the source only accepts wav files and I can't get itunes to export to wav format so your help would be much appreciated.

    I've used EasyWMA to convert audio formats before, and it may be able to do what you want. There is a limited free trial available:

    You can also try searching versiontracker.com or macupdate.com with the file types to see if there is other conversion software available.

  • Converting iTunes (m4a) to mp3 or wav

    I have a fairly extensive iTunes library which I sync with my iPod Nano 2. My daughter has just been given an mp3 player for her birthday and I'm trying to find a simple way of exporting & converting tracks for her to either mp3 or WAV format without losing my m4a. Any ideas short of burning original to CD then re-importing under her account (where import of CD's is set to mp3)?
    I have managed to open an iTunes track as m4a within Quicktime and save as a wav file, but the file size went from 2.6 MB to 11.7 MB - not very practical.
    Cheers, Andy

    If the file is an .m4p then it is DRM protected and you can only burn is as an audio CD - you can figure out the rest.
    If the file is a .m4a - no DRM - then you should be able to convert it to an mp3 within iTunes. Change your iTunes import options prefs.

  • How to convert AMR files into MP3 or WAV?

    Hello,
    I'm not sure if that's the right place to ask, but I couldn't find any more suitable one, so...
    Can anyone recommend a nice convenient application to convert my phone's recordings from AMR format to MP3 or WAV - eg. something I can conveniently listen to on my PC?
    Thanks in advance!

    Many of my friends recommend iDealshare VideoGo to convert AMR files to MP3 or WAV.
    Today i just have a try, and find it really works great in converting AMR to MP3, WAV, WMA, AAC, AIFF etc with high audio quality.
    what i like prefer is its drag and drop fuction and batch conversion fuction.
    Here is the step by step guide at How to Convert AMR to MP3, WAV?
    Hope it also helps for you.

  • Re:  conversion to mp3 or .wav

    I am using Adobe Photoshop to create a slideshow with digital camera pix. It has option to browse and look for music to incorporate in the show in mp3 or .wav format. When I browse and go to my music/itunes/artist/album and open the album folder, I don't see any songs (it displays only files of type mp3 or wav-- there are no other options).
    I can only assume that however itunes works, it is not in a format of mp3 or .wav. Is this a correct assumption? What format does itunes use?
    If so, how do I convert itunes format to mp3 or wav? When I click on a desired song from my library in itunes and go to "advanced" at the top I see an option "convert to AAC". What is this?
    When I simply drag from itunes library onto desktop it creates a .m4a extension. Adobe Photoshop doesn't seem to recognize this either. Any thoughts?

    AAC is a newly developed codec by a conglomeration of several companies and is used with the MPEG4 ISO standards. It is not proprietary to Apple but it is not MP3 or WAV. See:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/technologies/aac/
    http://www.vialicensing.com/products/mpeg4aac/standard.html
    If you get the "convert to AAC" selection in the menu, then your importing settings are for AAC. Go to: Edit=>Preferences=>'Advanced/Importing' tab and change your setting to MP3.
    Then select the song you want to convert and iTunes will create a new MP3 file for you.
    Post back if you have more questions.

  • HT203167 I have just installed itunes on my new comp. and searched for mp3 on the hard drive but it has not found all of them. There are 2000+ missing, is there any way to re-search the hard drive?

    Is there any way to re-search my hard drive for mp3s which have been missed on the initial search?

    If you've just moved the drive between systems then see Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows just in case that reveals the missing files. Apply to a single album folder first as a test. Otherwise, if you've not done too much with the drive since things went missing, an undelete tool might recover the lost media. FreeRecover looks promising... Select the drive, use the options to get file paths and check file integrity, then, presumably, you can restore anything that has been deleted that looks recoverable. Backup to another drive when you're done.
