WEISS SARACON (PCM ONLY) for Mac and PC

A versatile multichannel file format and sampling rate conversion tool of utmost quality. All standard sampling rates between 44.1kHz and 384kHz are supported. And DSD too. POW-R dithering is also included of course. Runs on Windows or OSX (PowerPC) platforms.

There are two versions available: Saracon and Saracon DSD. As the name implies, Saracon DSD adds DSD functionality. Both DSD to PCM and PCM to DSD conversion is possible with this option.

• Sampling Rates (input/output): 44.1k, 48k, 88.2k, 96k, 176.4k, 192k, 352.8k, 384k, DSD (DSD input in preparation)
• Wordlengths (input/output): 16/20/24/32 bit fixed point, 32/64 IEEE float, DSD (DSD input in preparation)
• File Formats (input/output): Microsoft-Wave (*.wav), Sonic Foundry w64 (*.wav), Audio Interchange File Format (*.aiff), Sun Audio (*.au), Broadcast-Wave (BWF), Sound Designer II (sd2), Apple Core Audio Files (caf), Ensoniq PARIS audio file format (paf), Matlab 4 and 5 files (mat), Header-less raw audio files (*.raw), dsdiff (DSD input in preparation)
