AudioMove project is a simple, easy to use GUI-based batch audio file copy-and-conversion program.

You just tell it what files to convert, what format to convert them to, and where to put the output files, and it does it.

Here are some key features of "AudioMove":
Converts from any format that libsndfile can read, to WAV, AIFF, or LCS format
Uses libsamplerate for high-quality sample rate conversion to various sample rates (11.025kHz-192kHz)
Supports 8-bit, 16-bit, 24-bit, 32-bit, or floating-point output sample widths
Specify files to convert using file requester or drag-and-drop
Multithreaded design for faster processing on multiprocessor machines
Pipelined dataflow for efficient resource utilization
Recursively batch-convert entire directory trees in a single step
Conversion-batch sizes may be arbitrarily large (e.g. thousands of files at a time)
Can be controlled from the command line (useful for invoking batch conversions from scripts)
No installation necessary -- just unzip and run
Qt-based GUI means AudioMove is portable to most major OS's
Open source (GPL); source code is available below
SUSE 9.1, MacOS/X and Windows binaries available below for your convenience.

What's New in This Release:
This version adds some nice touches to the file requesters, such as remembering the last 5 files you chose, and user-assignable hot-buttons for quickly getting to commonly used folders.
It also updates the included muscle and libsndfile distributions to the latest versions.
