Nero Digital Audio MPEG-4 and 3G Encoding Software is Released

Nero has announced that the Nero Digital Audio reference quality MPEG-4 audio encoding software is now available. Fully compatible with the latest MPEG-4 audio standard (LC-AAC, HE-AAC and HE-AAC v2), the 3GPP-compatible software enables users to store an entire audio album in a single .mp4 file with the best audio quality available.

A simple text-based command-line interface ensures that Nero Digital Audio is compatible with any existing audio software that consumers may already be using. Every file saved in the Nero Digital Audio codec will have advanced content management built into it, including support for CD-audio index maps, embedded album art and ReplayGain.

The advanced sound processing features of Nero Digital Audio software address the needs of both the audiophile and casual music enthusiast. For example, the amount of compression can be selected for any given file, from 2.5:1 for the highest fidelity to the maximum compression for storing up to 58 CDs on a single disc. In addition, the ability to handle sampling rates from 8 to 96 kHz and bit rates to 320 kBit/s per channel with constant, average, variable, or double-pass coding modes ensures that users have no difficulty with content from any audio source.

Nero Digital Audio software makes it easy to manage music, offering index maps, support for multiple songs in a single file, and ReplayGain to maintain consistent playback volume levels for every track.

In addition to the PC Windows compatible software, Nero Digital Audio offers an optimized decoding/playback solution for embedded hardware platforms running on Windows CE / Symbian OS / Linux (ARM, Intel XScale, TI-OMAP, Freescale mx.21), among others.
