from on APE file to several MP3/4 files with cue

Hi!

I have a CD converted to APE as one CD image. I also have a CUE file wich includes all the tracks names and playtime. I can't find a proper converter tha would convert the APE file to several MP3/4 (iPOD) files.
Any ideas?

Thanks

Foobar 2000 will do this with ease and many other things.

Damn, didn't get a chance to do my "You can use the most awesome program ever!!!, it does everything except rinse your contact lenses (and i'm not so sure)!!!" bit first.

But still, Foobar2000 with iTunesEncode.

That doesn't do the trick. Foobar2000 is only a player not an encoder...
Any other ideas?

Thanks

Foobar2000 has an excellent transcoding feature that uses external encoders to transcode almost anything to anything. I convert my WavPack images to AAC, MP3, etc. with foobar's Convert funtion.

Yeah, what ^ said.  I have ALL of my original CD's in single FLAC/.cue format.  I listen on the computer with the lossless and convert to lossy using the diskwriter module in Foobar.  Whether that lossy is .mp3, .m4a, .mpc or .ogg is of no concern as the diskwriter will handle anything on the commandline.

Do a search on here (HA) for "iTunesEncode46.zip".  It'll have all of the instructions inside the readme.

found the readme file. Can't say I understand its content though...
Why can't I code to MP3 at 320k/s? with foobar?
Why do I need to check the vbr to get the conversion to work? I get an error message
