Kexis

Kexis is a powerful software tool that will help you to compress and reduce the size of your WAV files without losing any of the original sound quality. This lossless WAV file compressor is designed to develop prediction and encoding schemes that will minimize the compressed file size, ensuring that your sound files are compact and easy to handle.

Kexis strives to be the premier lossless sound encoder and offers several features to make your workflow smoother. The latest release introduces several new options to improve the user experience, including the ability to turn off the logic that uses similarities between the left and right channel when encoding data with -ns. While it is not recommended to do so, as it usually results in worse compression, the option is available for users who require greater flexibility.

Kexis now opens files as "binary", which is especially useful for Windows, NT and other operating systems to enhance portability. Additionally, a -d switch has been added which causes Kexis to delete WAV files after encoding them, saving time and increasing efficiency.

When decoding to stdout, Kexis now properly keeps stdout open so multiple files can now be streamed. And finally, the progress bar on decode now correctly displays mid and average, not predicted mid and average for added precision.

In conclusion, Kexis is a robust and user-friendly compressor that offers exceptional quality without sacrificing file size. With its latest updates, users can enjoy more control and efficiency, making it an excellent software choice for sound and music professionals alike.
