What it is
Audiograbber is Windows software for extracting audio from CDs and converting it to MP3, Ogg Vorbis, WAV, WMA, PCM, and other formats. Its integrated recorder digitizes analog sources such as records and cassettes. During CD ripping, it can detect separate tracks from pauses and fill ID3 tags with track information. Quality controls and metadata editing are included. The download page offers Audiograbber 1.83 2020 Edition with integrated MP3 support and CD lookup through GnuDB, which the maker identifies as the replacement for freedb. Audiograbber is freeware for private individuals, companies, and organizations. The listed free download is ad-supported, while Audiograbber Pro costs €9.90 once and is ad-free. German, French, Spanish, and Italian are included in the setup program, with other language files listed separately. Guides cover initial setup and line-in recording from MiniDisc, cassettes, and vinyl. The software does not provide cloud conversion. Windows 8 and 8.1 require compatibility mode.
