CDex is an application with features that is able to record audio tracks from a CD-ROM, and save the files to disk in a standard WAV file. CDex can extract the data directly from an Audio CD, which is generally a called an Audio CD Ripper or CDDA utility. The application reads the digital audio data directly from the disc, which can be stored in either a WAV file or a MP3 sound file. This version of CDex has a couple of bug fixes, and features many internal and encoder updates.

CDex can extract the data directly (digital) from an Audio CD, which is generally called a CD Ripper or a CDDA utility. The resulting audio file can be a plain WAV file (useful for making compilation audio CDs) or the ripped audio data can be compressed using an audio encoder. CDex is an open source program and supports the following encoders; lame MP3 encoder, internal MP2 encoder, APE lossless audio, Ogg Vorbis encoder, the Windows MP3 encoder (Fraunhofer MP3 encoder), NTT VQF encoder, FAAC encoder, and Windows WMA8 encoder.

CDex supports a variety of features that include the following; direct encoding or multiple tracks, read/store album information from/to the cdplayer.ini file, read/store album information from/to a local and remote CD database (CDDB), support CD-Text (if your CD-drive supports it), normalization of audio signal, and many more.
