Voxengo r8brain free

R8brain is the best rate converter I tried.  I found other professional programs always change sound, even making 44100 from 48000. r8brain - doesn't.  It saves the sound, harmonics, dymanics, even converting 96000 to 44100 the result we get is very close to original.  R8brain is just perfect, this tool is a must-have for any home and project studio.  And also it is free!

As a home studio owner I have a very limited budget when it comes to my DAW.  I use the Kristal Audio Engine as my main DAW along with Sound Forge 6 for mastering.  A few months back I got in a "pickle"......I had recorded an entire CD worth of music using another DAW.  When I tried to load it into KAE it sounded like the band was on speed!  I needed 48k but everything was recorded at 41k.  A fellow KAE user (THANKS DOUG!) turned me on to the r8Brain converter, and I have to say it was a God send!  Easy to use, small and quick, even on my P3 700mHz system with 640mb of ram.  The conversion went well, and sounded great, clear and clean with no artifacts at all...wow!  How can you folks put out one of the best pieces of software I have ever used for free?  You can bet that as my studio makes a few more bucks some of it is coming your way!  THANK YOU!

I love the fact that Aleksey doesn't assume which platform his users are making music on.  Instead, he offers plugins for several platforms, including Vista x64, which is a big plus for me.  Thanks, Voxengo!
