Free ripper software for mac

X Lossless Decoder 20090924 (XLD) is a comprehensive and easy-to-use tool for Mac OS X that is able to decode/convert/play various 'lossless' audio files. The supported audio files can be split into some tracks with cue sheet when decoding. It works on Mac OS X 10.3 and later.

Major Features:

1. Support various formats
   • XLD supports the following formats:
   • • (Ogg) FLAC (.flac/.ogg)
     • Monkey's Audio (.ape)
     • Wavpack (.wv)
     • TTA (.tta)
     • Apple Lossless (.m4a) [10.4 and later]
     • AIFF, WAV, etc
   • Other formats supported by Libsndfile are also decodable. XLD uses not decoder frontend but library to decode, so no intermediate files are generated. All of the supported formats can be directly split with the cue sheet. XLD also supports so-called 'embedded' or 'internal' cue sheet.
   • Currently you can choose output format from WAVE,AIFF and Raw PCM. In addition, you can choose Ogg Vorbis (aoTuV), MPEG-4 AAC (QuickTime/CoreAudio), MP3 (LAME), Apple Lossless, FLAC, HE-AAC (aacPlus v1/v2), Wave64 and WavPack in the GUI version.
   • XLD version 20080812 and later can be used as a CD ripper. You can convert each track in your audio CD into the desired format. Also XLD supports output a CD image with cue sheet (wav+cue, flac+cue, etc).
2. Plug-in oriented design: Frontend and backend of XLD are prefectry separated, so the frontend is able to access the various decoder with the same interface. If they provide plug-in interface in the future, you can easily develop the plug-in of the new format. If you are interested in this, please see XLDDecoder.h in the source files.

Enhancements:

• Fixed a problem of ALAC metadata reader on Snow Leopard
• Fixed a problem that autoloading disc was not working on Snow Leopard
• XLD now accepts cover arts dragged from web browsers
• Implemented an interactive bitrate indicator for AAC ture VBR encoder
• Fixed a problem when reading ISRC tag in FLAC files

Requirements: Mac OS X 10.3 and later.

Sbooth Max 0.9.1 is launched to be a helpful program which helps with creating high-quality audio files in various formats, from compact discs or files. When extracting audio from compact discs, Max offers the maximum in flexibility to ensure the true sound of your CD is faithfully extracted. For pristine discs, Max offers a high-speed ripper with no error correction. For damaged discs, Max can either use its built-in comparison ripper (for drives that cache audio) or the error-correcting power of cdparanoia.

Once the audio is extracted, Max can generate audio in over 20 compressed and uncompressed formats including MP3, Ogg (Vorbis), FLAC, AAC, Apple Lossless, Monkey's Audio, WavPack, Speex, AIFF, and WAVE.

If you would like to convert your audio from one format to another, Max can read and write audio files in over 20 compressed and uncompressed formats at almost all sample rates and and in most sample sizes. For many popular formats the artist and album metadata is transferred seamlessly between the old and new files. Max can even split a single audio file into multiple tracks using a cue sheet.

Max leverages open source components and the resources of Mac OS X to provide extremely high-quality output. For example, MP3 encoding is accomplished with LAME, Ogg Vorbis encoding with aoTuV, FLAC encoding with libFLAC, and AAC and Apple Lossless encoding with Core Audio. Many PCM conversions are also possible using Core Audio and libsndfile.

Max is integrated with MusicBrainz to permit automatic retrieval of compact disc information. For MP3, FLAC, Ogg (FLAC), Ogg (Vorbis), Monkey's Audio, WavPack, AAC and Apple Lossless files Max will write this metadata to the output.

Max allows full control over where output files are placed and what they are named. If desired, Max will even add the encoded files to your iTunes library in a playlist of your choice.

For advanced users, Max allows control over how many threads are used for encoding, what type of error correction is used for audio extraction, and what parameters are used for each of the various encoders.

Max is free software released under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files.
ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files.
The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!
Some of the adventures ScummVM supports include Adventure Softs Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2; Revolutions Beneath A Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 and Broken Sword 2; Flight of the Amazon Queen; Wyrmkeeps Inherit the Earth; Coktel Visions Gobliiins; Westwood Studios The Legend of Kyrandia and games based on LucasArts SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) system such as Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max and more. You can find a thorough list with details on which games are supported and how well on the compatibility page.
