A cross-platform, multi-format audio conversion and tagging suite for .NET and PowerShell. Formats currently supported are MP3, MP4 AAC, FLAC, Apple Lossless (ALAC), Opus, Ogg Vorbis and Wave.
A full user interface (Windows only) is coming soon.
This project supplants PowerShell Audio by targetting both Windows PowerShell and PowerShell Core (Windows, Linux and MacOS).
| Platform | Status (Master Branch) |
|---|---|
| Windows |  |
| Linux |  |
| MacOS |  |
AudioWorks runs on Windows 7+, MacOS 10.12+, and Ubuntu (18.04 or 16.04). Other 64-bit Linux distributions may work, but may require additional dependencies and are currently untested.
- PowerShell Core 6.1+ (recommended) and/or Windows PowerShell 5.1
- .NET Framework 4.7.1+ (if using Windows PowerShell)
- iTunes (optional, for AAC and ALAC support. Requires the classic installer, not the Windows Store version. Technically only the Apple Application support packages are required)
- PowerShell Core 6.1+

The AudioWorks PowerShell module can found on the PowerShell Gallery. If you are using Windows PowerShell 5.1, you may need to update PowerShellGet to a version that supports pre-release modules.

This project wouldn't be possible without the work of these other fine projects and organizations:
- Hydrogen Audio Forums, a wonderful, scientifically-minded community of digital audio enthusiasts.
- The LAME Project, maintainers of the high-quality MP3 encoder.
- The Xiph.Org Foundation, maintainers of Ogg Vorbis and FLAC (the Free Lossless Audio Codec).
- libebur128, a library implementing the EBU R.128 loudness standard.
- QAAC, a command-line front-end for Apple's AAC and Apple Lossless encoders.
