PX3's AC3 to WAV Converter

PX3's AC3 to WAV Converter is a small software application whose purpose is to help you convert AC3 files to WAV file format. It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there.

Portable running mode

You can keep the utility stored on USB flash drives or other portable devices so you can carry it with you all the time. In addition, you may run it without being an administrator. You can quickly access the program’s features because you do not have to follow the steps included in an installation process. A double-click on the executable file is sufficient for opening the GUI.
It does not write entries to your Windows registry and leave other configuration files so you can get rid of it using a simple deletion task of the files that you have downloaded from the Internet.

Plain looks

PX3's AC3 to WAV Converter does not impress much in the visual department. It reveals an outdated layout that remains in a fixed position on the desktop. A help manual is not included in the package so you need to experiment a little bit with the built-in options in order to understand how the program works.
AC3 files can be added in the working environment using only the built-in browse button (the drag-and-drop support is not implemented).

Conversion capabilities

PX3's AC3 to WAV Converter offers you the possibility to select the input AC3 file, pick the saving directory, and specify the filename in order to complete the conversion process. It does not offer support for batch actions so you cannot encode multiple AC3 files at the same time.
Other important configuration settings worth being mentioned enable you to normalize the WAV file, amplify the WAV file with the aid of a built-in slider, as well as get details about the encoded number of bytes, encoded frames, AC3 stream position, and elapsed time. In case you think the conversion task takes too much time, you are allowed to cancel it anytime.
In order to carry out a conversion job successfully, you need to enable an audio codec. Tests have pointed out that PX3's AC3 to WAV Converter is quite fast when it comes to encoding audio streams. However, it has not been updated for a long time so it may cause compatibility issues on newer operating systems like Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.

Final thoughts

All in all, PX3's AC3 to WAV Converter comes bundled with several basic features for helping you perform conversions, and is suitable especially for less experienced users.
