    Batch convert multiple files in multiple folders but keep the files in original folde

    I use Windows 10

    I have 100 folders which all contain a number of wave files.

    Is the a way that I select all 10 folders and have dbPoweramp convert those files to flac and place the flacs in the same folder as the source wav files keeping the same name kHz, bit rate and file tags as the source wav files?

    Can this be done in reverse where I select a number of folders that contain flac files and have dbPoweramp convert those files to wav and place the wav's in the same folder as the source flac files keeping the same name kHz, bit rate and file tags as the source flac files?

    Thanks in advance

    Yes, use batch converter, select the root folder, if there are other files other than wave, click the filter button to select only wav files. Click Convert, for encoder choose FLAC, and for 'Output To' choose 'Existing Source Files'

    Click convert.

    You can go Wave to FLAC, and FLAC to wave.

          Thank you,

          I now have a flac file, and a mp3 file in the folder so my file size has doubled.

          Folders
          9632-FLAC
          Aaron Neville
          The Grand Tour
          01 Don't Take Away My Heaven.flac
          01 Don't Take Away My Heaven.mp3
          02 I Owe You One.flac
          02 I Owe You One.mp3
          03 Don't Fall Apart On Me Tonight.flac
          03 Don't Fall Apart On Me Tonight.mp3




          How do I only get the mp3 file into the converted folders.

          Also for playing what is best conversion setting from flac to mp3.

          This is for car audio.

          Thank you,

            I have my music collection of 4000 flac songs in 3 folders, with album folders, nested with artist folders, art, etc. I want to convert to mp3 so I can play them in my car. However when I convert them the conversion gives me 4000 songs no folders. It did put converted sons into the metadata folders so I can play by
