Introduction

download ACXtractor

Audio CD Xtractor is a fast, professional and user friendly CD ripper for Win 9x/ NT/ 2K (aka audio grabber, digital audio extraction).
ACXtractor is the successor of the well known and high estimated RDACD.
You can extract your AUDIO CDs very easily and save it as WAV (make a copy of your original CD), MP3 or OGG.

The aim of the development of the user interface was to put all necessary controls on the main window so that you do not need to search for a certain functions in different windows. The program clearly labels its major functions with quick key shortcuts that are noted on the buttons.
A feature especially estimated from the power user like online publisher and musicians is the ability to select only parts of a CD track. You can adjust the start and end mark with a precision of ± 1 frame (1/75 sec) and then listen the selection. Thereby it is really easy to get some samples from CD.
