The AAC (actually ADTS-AAC) encoding is provided by encaacplus.dll (Winamp 5.1 to 5.61) or encfhgaac.dll (Winamp 5.62 and up). If this is not detected in the Winamp plug-ins folder then only MP3 encoding is available.

Klick one time more on RIP and select “RIP ALL TRACKS”
And Winamp rips without any problem your CD to FLAC.

– You can also rip to WAV and WMA lossless for free. Just use the higest settings.
If you are not sure be free to ASK me.

So no need to purchase any programm.
However what to do if you want to have MP3 files?

No problem for that I have a pefect free and easy solution.
“Not everything is free, however to convert flac to 320kbps yes it’s free”

The program is called: Switch Audio File Converter Software
And can be downloaded here:http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html

“Get it Free. A free version of Switch is available for non-commercial use. The free audio converter does not expire and includes most common audio file formats. Download the free version here.“

Also also watch out that you only instal the program no need to accept stupid toolbars etc.

After the installation drag or add your FLAC, WAV, WMA or any other lossess file inside of Switch Sound.
Then choose OUTPUT Format: mp3
Then click on ENCODER OPTIONS.
Then you can choose your settings.
I always use this settings which you can see in the image.
But it’s also very easy to make a VBR rip.

After that, check your files in your saved folder.

And then you have made a perfect rip!.
