Tunesify 4+

Okay, so this encoder claims to use LAME for MP3 encoding, but it's actually somewhat better than the typical LAME encoder that we all know. I'm not sure what else is going on here, but I've done several tests while examining the spectogram on songs and Tunesify is always better than any encoder I've used. I wish I could find more info on what is specificaaly being used in addition to LAME, if dither is being applied, ect. This is only for the highest quality encodes possible. For example, if your WAV file is 48khz, the resulting MP3 file will be 48khz instead oif the typical 41khz, and there's seemingly no way to turn it off. It feels like a very "go big or go home" approach, but as I'm encoding stuff for radio, this genuinely seems like the best app out there for what I'm doing. Definitely worth the 99 cents I paid.

I bought this program in 2011 and this updated review is written in 2020. For whaterver reason, too many apps are not updated. Tunesify has been updated and improved over my 9 years of onwership and use. For that, thank you and keep up the great work.

I used it’s predecessor, Flac2Mac for years, swapping to Apple Lossless for iTunes compatibility, but it had a habit of not porting ID3 tags. These days, I have preview ability with Flac and Swinsian which plays Flacs natively but this still is my go to convert Flac or ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec) to WAV for uses in audio apps without the ID3 issues. The only real gripe is adding another $1 just allow higher resolution files. Its abitrary and annoying. Just charge me $5 if that’s what dev wants. I didn’t mind forking up a few dollars for years of usage of his previous app but IAP for something I can do with several other applications, seems like nickle and diming.
