To install Flacon 4.0.0 on Linux Mint 18.3
Flacon is an audio file encoding application that extracts individual tracks from one big audio file containing the entire album of music and saves them as separate audio files. It takes the information from the appropriate CUE file. Besides, Flacon makes it possible to conveniently revise or specify tags both for all tracks at once and for each tag separately. Apart from this, Flacon is built with several other notable features and some of them are listed below.
Features
- Supported input formats: WAV, FLAC, APE, WavPack, True Audio (TTA)
- Supported out formats: FLAC, WAV, WavPack, AAC, OGG or MP3.
- Replay Gain analysis (album-gain and track-gain modes).
- Multi-threaded conversion process.
- Automatic character set detection for CUE files.
- Generation of the pertrack CUE file in the output dir.
- It is so simple to install Flacon and this tutorial you guide you through with the installation of Flacon 3.0.0 on Linux Mint 18.3
