dcsTools Audio Importer is a set of software tools for automatically converting standard audio files for use with XStudio and Maestro.

Several source file types are supported, including .wav, .mp2 and .mp3. Converted files can be output to XStudio .daf and Maestro .daf & .dff file types. Other output file types are supported, too, so dcsTools Audio Importer could be used to convert, for instance, an .mp3 file to a .wav file for further editing and processing.

dcsTools Audio Importer is comprised of two applications. dcsTools Audio Import Service runs as a Windows service, and dcsTools Audio Import Manager runs as a tray application, meaning that as a default, dcsTools Audio Import Manager minimizes itself to the Windows system tray in order to be unobtrusive during normal use. dcsTools Audio Import Manager is used to configure and monitor the activities of dcsTools Audio Import Service.

• Unattended, automatic conversion and import of audio files with no user interaction required.
• Granular control of how a conversion is handled based on user-defined criteria.
• Output type, expiration date and output location are controlled by the user - there's no one-size-fits-all restriction.
• Support for multiple source file types, including .wav, .mpg, .mp2, .mp3, .daf, .dff, and .raw
• Support for multiple output file types, including .wav, .mpg, .mp2, .mp3, .daf, .dff, and .raw
