Re: SACD to FLAC

No dice but thanks for idea. I can't remember if command prompt has a mode to write everything to a text file. I know for Lame, FLAC and robocopy for example, the .exe file itself has a "logging" option.
I noticed that if you just run it silent, then errors are quite obvious - so I'll do that I guess.
Hm, I just tried it and it doesn't seem to work. However, if you remove the "pause" at the end and have it write both standard output and standard error from the command prompt or PowerShell, you can have a log file.
The batch file would be
for %%a in ("YourInputFolderHere\*.dsf") do sox -V3 -S "%%a" -b 16 "YourOutputFolderHere\%%~na.flac" rate -v 44100
And in the command prompt or PowerShell, you'd invoke it as
PS DirectoryHere> BatchFile.bat > log.txt 2>&1
Now log.txt will have all the output that was generated (but there's no console output in real time; this is why the "pause" part was removed, so when you get back the command prompt, you know it's finished).
