Len Displays length, size and properties of PCM data The shntool documentation () describes each: Shntool tab: xACT can execute 10 different shntool options (fix has its own tab): len, info, join, split, cpm, cue, trim, pad, strip.
To verify checksum file(s), add the file(s) to the file list and select "Verify Checksum File." To verify audio files, add the files to the file list and select "Verify Audio Files." To create a checksum file, add the files to the file list and select "Create Checksum File." Choose the type of checksum file you want to create. Choose the output format and format options if applicable.Ĭhecksum tab: This tab can verify audio files (flac, wavpack, tta, ape), create checksum files (md5, ffp, st5), or verify checksum files (md5, ffp, st5). Drag files onto the file list on the left or add files using the "Add" button. Choose output format to decode to and click "Decode." You can decode to the directory of the source files, and can choose to delete the original files after decoding.Įncode tab: For encoding files to lossless formats. Note: xACT will not convert mp3 or aac files to any lossless format. There is a preference you can set to control how many operations will do at the same time (max threads).ĭecode tab: for decoding files to aiff or wav format. As of version 2.0, you should be able to do a combination of these things all at the same time. To convert lossless formats into lossy MP3 or AAC files, use the "Lossy" tab. To use the batch rename function (described below), CD Extraction, add Replay Gain to FLAC files, remove emphasis from 16 bit audio files, or create a DVD-AUDIO disc image, use the "Util" tab (I didn't know where else to put these). To edit tags in FLAC, AAC, Monkey's Audio, Wavpack, Apple Lossless or MP3 files, use the "Tags" tab. To fix sector boundary errors in 16 bit audio files, use the "Fix SBE" tab. To use shntool specific functions (described in a section below), you use the "shntool" tab. To make md5 checksums of files, verify md5 checksums or flac fingerprints, verify flac/wavpack/monkey's audio files and other functions that can help verify the sanity of files, use the "Checksum" tab. To convert files to these losslessly compressed formats, use the "Encode" tab. To convert files from a compressed format like FLAC, SHN, Monkey's Audio, Wavepack, Apple Lossless, etc to aiff or wav, you use the "Decode" tab. The basic functions of xACT are split into various tabs in the application.

If you have any questions about how to use it, feel free to email me. Someday I'll get around to making it more detailed. I'm sorry that this brief "how to" isn't nearly as complete as it should be. I thought only a few people would use it.Ĭopy the xACT application to your hard drive. I started adding support for flac, shn, monkey's audio, etc.
XACT started in 2003 as a simple graphical interface for the command line tool "shntool." I knew a few people who didn't want to use the command line, so I created a front end to let them use shntool () without having to use Terminal. It executes the basic commands of these applications and adds other features to speed up productivity in creation/use of standard filesets. Under the hood, xACT is a GUI based front end for the unix applications Shorten (3.6.1), shntool (3.0.10), Monkey's Audio Compressor (3.99), flac (1.3.2), wavpack (4.70.0), TTA (3.4.1), Opus (libopus 1.1), cdda2wav 3.0 (with paranoia support), LAME (3.100), and aacplusenc (0.17.5).

It also can encode these formats to MP3, AAC, or Opus, and do various other utility functions, in addition to a full set of shntool functions. XACT stands for X Audio Compression Toolkit, an application that encodes and decodes FLAC, SHN, Monkey’s Audio, TTA, Wavpack, and Apple Lossless files.
