I need to convert 24-bit 48000 .wav to 44100 .wav.
What's your go-to converter for this?
Quality would be my first consideration,
2nd would be ease of install or build,
3rd would be I have a preference for command line.
This would be for off-line use.
I use zresample wich comes as an example app with the zita-resampler
library. Apart from resampling it can also change the sample format,
and add dither if the output is 16-bit. It handles any number of
channels.
zresample --help
zresample 1.4.0
(C) 2007-2012 Fons Adriaensen <fons(a)linuxaudio.org>
Usage: zresample <options> <input file> <output file>.
Options:
Display this text: --help
Output file type: --caf, --wav, --amb
Output sample rate: --rate <sample rate>
Output sample format: --16bit, --24bit, --float
Dither type (16 bit): --rec, --tri, --lips
Add zero padding : --pad
The default output file format is wav, 24-bit, no dithering.
Integer output formats are clipped, float output is not.

A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia.
