 | |
Tau Producer is the Windows GUI (graphical user interface) for the Free Lossless True Audio codec (TTA), which performs lossless compression on multichannel 8, 16 and 24-bit data of WAV audio files. The term "lossless" refers to the fact that such compression results in literally no data or quality loss; when decompressed, the audio file data are bit-identical to those of their originals. The TTA codec allows for the storage of up to 20 audio CDs worth of music on a single DVD-R, retaining the original CD quality audio, plus detailed information in the popular ID3 tag format.

TTA has compared favorably to a majority of its popular open-source peers. Compression ratios achieved by the TTA codec vary, depending on music type, but range from 30% - 70% of the original. The TTA lossless compressed audio format supports both ID3v1 and ID3v2 information tags.
TTA project provides the following: Compiles for several different platforms; Plugins for the most popular media players; TTA DirectShow filters; Set of the C/C++ TTA development libraries; Free and open source code and documentation.
