Read step-by-step guide below

How to convert DFF to FLAC

To convert DFF to FLAC (DSD to PCM file):

Launch AuI ConverteR 48x44.
Push Open files button and select *.dff file.
First time, codec request window appear. To auto download and install the codec, push OK button.
Choose FLAC in main window (right middle part) Format field.
Choose output directory:
In main window of the conversion software (left lower part) Directory output files field
It can be as absolute as relative source-stuff directory.
Push Start button. Wait until end of conversion.
Look for converted stuff into directory that selected in goal 3.

Set output compression level:

In the conversion software's main window push Settings button, Settings window is appear.
In Settings window > General tab > set the level via FLAC compressing slider.

Any compressing level provide same sound quality.

True Gapless Mode

True gapless mode intended for albums, that should sound as solid stream. It is live concerts, operas and other. After resampling at track borders, artefacts can appear. It happens due processing re-initialization at the begin each track. In True gapless mode initialization is performed at begin of first album track.

If True Gapless Mode turned on, album tracks are converted sequentially, one-by-one. There is need information about end of previous track before start processing next one.

Auto level normalization

As rule, 1-bit records have -6 dB headroom by sigma-delta modulator stability issues.

Auto level normalization allow to maximize album level with keeping relative levels of its tracks.

Watch and share: Loudness normalization by peak level

Sound quality

Sound quality (distortion value) is first point of attention in design professional software. Tranformations should be transparently to original stuff quality as possibly.

AuI ConverteR vs a converter software: DSD64 to PCM 44.1 kHz aliases

In ideal case, should not be repeatable lines with lower brightness (aliases). The aliases are audible distortions, that correlate with original signal.

Any AuI ConverteR’s version provide fully identical signal processing quality.

But functional restrictions and available formats, sample rates, etc. are different.

The software convert DFF audio file to FLAC as sigma-delta-modulation noise filtering.

Operas, musicals, live concerts and same albums are solid music stream. Recording is done in single file. Before placement at optical disk the stream is divided into tracks. At its borders non-zero loudness are possible. It can cause border artefacts.

Converting such tracks as separate files, cause aftefacts at track borders. Because processing is initialized at begin of next track. True gapless conversion process these tracks as single stream with initialization at first album composition begin only.

1-bit formats maximal value is -6 dB limited. It is DSD modulator's stability issues. Auto level normalizing magnify (or reduce in some cases) loudness of all tracks so maximal peak level of full converted album is 0 dB.

Resampling filters of the conversion software are reviewed here.

DFF to FLAC Converter Configurations

Audio quality is fully identical in DEMO, PROduce-RD, Modula-R. In the DEMO at the middle of converted tracks, two seconds are muted.

The software configurations to convert DFF to FLAC:

all included PROduce-RD edition or
configurable Modula-R edition to save budget

Modula-R edition is single software unit. You can order modules (module's license keys) and enter it there. Each key make accessible relevant functionality.
