CDex extracts tracks digitally from Audio CDs and saves them as WAV or compressed audio. It supports encoders such as MP3, MP2, APE, Ogg Vorbis, VQF, AAC and WMA, and can convert existing WAV files in either direction. CD database lookup, CD-Text support, ID3 tagging, normalization and jitter correction help with accurate, organized ripping. M3U and PLS playlists are also supported.

CDex is a Windows audio utility for extracting tracks from Audio CDs and converting audio files. It is suited to people digitizing a CD collection, preparing tracks for portable playback, or creating compressed copies for a music library. Digital extraction reads audio data directly from a disc and saves it as WAV or encodes it into a compressed format, so users can choose between an uncompressed working copy and smaller files for everyday listening.

For compressed output, CDex supports several encoder formats, including MP3, MP2, APE, Ogg Vorbis, VQF, AAC through FAAC, and WMA. Encoder availability gives users options for balancing file size, compatibility, and audio quality. The program can also convert WAV files already stored on the computer to compressed audio, or convert compressed audio back to WAV. This makes it useful both for disc-based imports and for handling existing files without needing a separate conversion tool.

CDex can retrieve album and track information from a local or remote CD database, read and write information in cdplayer.ini, and use CD-Text when the drive and disc support it. Track information can be saved in ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags during ripping, helping keep artist, album, and title details with the resulting files. It can record multiple tracks, show track progress, and apply normalization to adjust audio levels. Jitter correction, based on the cd-paranoia ripping library, helps address timing errors during extraction; its progress and jitter indicators provide feedback while a disc is being read.

Playlist support for M3U and PLS files helps organize converted tracks for compatible players. CDex also works with a range of CD drives and supports multiple interface languages. A typical workflow is to insert an audio disc, retrieve or enter its track details, select tracks and an output format, then save the extracted files to the computer. Users can instead import WAV files for conversion, or create WAV output for later audio-CD preparation.

CDex is freeware and is available for Windows, including Windows 7 and 64-bit Windows 7. Its functions depend on having an Audio CD and compatible optical drive for disc extraction; CD-Text and drive-specific behavior depend on hardware support. The range of encoders is useful for users who want control over output formats, while database lookup and embedded tags reduce the work of cataloging a digitized collection.
