`exhaleApp.exe 5 C:\Music\Input.wav C:\Music\Output.m4a`
converts file Input.wav to file Output.m4a at roughly 128 kbit/s (if
the input file is two-channel stereo) and in xHE-AAC audio format.
the input signal is two-channel stereo) and in xHE-AAC audio format.
Note that, when calling the exhale application with a path (such as,
e.g., `bin/exhale` or `bin\exhaleApp.exe`), but specifying the input
or output file without any path (e.g., `Input.wav`), those files are
assumed to be located in the application path (here, `bin`). Use the
"dot prefix" to indicate files in the *current* directory instead of
the application directory (here, `./Input.wav` or `.\Input.wav`).
### Third-party stdin (foobar2000):
After downloading from www.foobar2000.org and starting the software,
load your desired input WAVE files into the playlist. Mark all files
to be converted, rightclick on one of them and select `Convert` ->
`Quick convert`. In the newly opened window click on `Add New`, then
select `Custom` under "Encoder" and enter the following information:
load the desired input audio files into the playlist. Mark all files
to be converted, rightclick on one of them, and select `Convert` ->
`...`. In the newly opened window click on `Output format` and, once
the window content changed, on `Add New`. Then select `Custom` under
"Encoder" and enter the following information:
- *Encoder file:* exhaleApp.exe (possibly including path to it)
- *Extension:* m4a
- *Parameters:* # %d (where number is the bit-rate mode, 1...9)
- *Format is:* lossy
- *Highest BPS mode supported:* 24 (or 32, doesn't matter much)
- *Encoder name:* exhale
- *Encoder name:* xHE-AAC (exhale)
- *Bitrate (kbps):* (depends on bit-rate mode, see Usage above)
- *Settings:* default CVBR
- *Settings:* CVBR mode # (where # equals that in *Parameters*)
Then click on `OK` and on `Back` and, in the first "Converter Setup"
window, on `Other` and ensure all "Transfer..." boxes are unchecked.
Now set the destination settings as desired and click on `Convert`.
