Description

Compresses and restores audio using the WavPack format, including lossless, lossy, and hybrid modes. It is useful for people archiving music, distributing audio efficiently, or working with applications that read and write WavPack files.

This package provides codec support and command-line tools rather than a full music player. Encoding settings affect file size and audio preservation, so important recordings should be kept in a verified backup before conversion.
