WavPack - completely open audio compression format providing lossless, high-quality lossy and a unique hybrid compression mode WavPack is a completely open audio compression format providing lossless, high-quality lossy, and a unique hybrid compression mode. Although the technology is loosely based on previous versions of WavPack, the new version 4.0 format has been designed from the ground up to offer unparalleled performance and functionalityIn the default lossless mode WavPack acts just like a WinZip compressor for audio files. However, unlike MP3 or WMA encoding which can affect the sound quality, not a single bit of the original information is lost and so there's no chance of degradation. This makes lossless mode ideal for archiving audio material or any other situation where quality is paramount. The compression ratio depends on the source material, but generally is between 30% and 70%.The hybrid mode provides all the advantages of lossless compression with an additional bonus. Instead of creating a single file, this mode creates both a relatively small, high-quality lossy file that can be used all by itself, and a "correction" file that (when combined with the lossy file) provides full lossless restoration. For some users this means never having to choose between lossless and lossy compression!Here are some key features of "WavPack":Compatible with virtually all PCM audio formats including 8, 16, and 24-bit ints; 32-bit floats; mono, stereo, and multichannel; sampling rates from 6 to 192 kHz (and non-standard rates)Multiplatform support including Windows, Linux, and OS XInstantly seekable and streaming capable (and gapless)ReplayGain (including WavPack file scanner and compatible plugins)Uses ID2v1 and APEv2 tags for metadata (including ReplayGain)Error-tolerant block format conducive to hardware decodingOptional "asymmetrical" mode for improved compressionMD5 audio checksums for verification and identificationUnique hybrid mode (provides high quality lossy + "correction" fileHybrid mode now operates as low as 2.25 bits/sample (or 196 kbps for CD audio)Free and open source with easy to use library interface and unrestrictive license (BSD)Intuitive command line interface (with wildcards and destination directory)Small, efficient executable (no large programs or dlls to install)Fully backward compatible to WavPack 1.0Self-extracting archives (Windows only)Complete piping support.
