Bitfake2 ~ Audio Tool Handler & Manipulator


Bitfake was originally created to detect fake .FLAC files through spectral analysis. It has since grown into a multipurpose CLI tool for handling music more easily and efficiently.

One common problem was that getting a track’s metadata required long ffprobe commands with messy output. Converting music with ffmpeg was also repetitive. The command itself is easy to remember, but writing scripts to convert entire directories felt inefficient and slow. This project now performs metadata and conversion tasks directly through linked libraries (TagLib/libsndfile/libav*).

Features:

  • Get metadata
  • Get ReplayGain info (useful for music players)
  • Spectral analysis on 44.1 kHz .FLAC files (higher sample rates may be misrepresented, so be careful)
  • Lossy diagnosis (banding score)
  • File Conversion + VBR Support (Works for outputs like .wav.flac.ogg.mp3.aac.opus)
  • Tagging metadata (Works for single files, but not directories yet)
  • Calculating ReplayGain and applying it to files (Works for track replay gain iterating through directories, album replay gain is a bit funky?)
  • Directory Conversion (works for all previously mentioned formats!)
  • CoverArt+ (Brings along cover art among all conversions!)
  • Organizing Files by album! (Give a dir of random music, and bitfake will organize it – ty to uncognic)
  • Directory Tagging (YAY!)
  • Album folder renaming from tags (Artist – Album (Year))
  • Spectrogram generation (in .png)
  • Version info (WOW! BEST YET!)
  • MusicBrainz Syncing data.
