Description
xcfa_cli is an application for conversion, normalization, reconfiguring wav files and cut audio files ...
What xcfa_cli can do:
- replaygain on files: flac, mp3, ogg, wavpack
- conversions:
- from files:
wav, flac, ape, wavpack, ogg, m4a, mpc, mp3, wma, shorten, rm, dts, aif, ac3
- to files:
wav, flac, ape, wavpack, ogg, m4a, mpc, mp3, aac
- conversion settings for file management:
flac, ape, wavpack, ogg, m4a, aac, mpc, mp3
- management tags
- management cue wav file
- manipulation of the frequency, track and bit wav files
- standardization on files: wav, mp3, ogg
- cuts (split) wav files
- displaying information on files
Examples Convertion
$ xcfa_cli --input "file.wav" -d ogg --dest flac,mpc --output newfolder/

Examples Replaygain:
$ xcfa_cli -i "*.*" --replaygain clear
$ xcfa_cli -i "*.*" --replaygain album
Examples Setting Wav
$ xcfa_cli -i "file.wav" -d wav -o newfolder/ --frequency 96000 --track 6 --quantification 32 --verbose
Examples Split
$ xcfa_cli --input "file.wav" --split_info
$ xcfa_cli --input "file.wav" -d ogg,mpc --split 00:00:32 --length 22 --output newfolder/
$ xcfa_cli --input "file.wav" -d ogg,mpc --split 00:01:00 --length 22 --output newfolder/

See an excellent article by @Dzef on standardization:

--peak
Action on a single file.
Maximum volume amplification for each file.
Increase the overall level of the signal so as to bring the level to 0 dBFS peak without changing
dynamics.
--peak_album
Action on a group of files.
Maximum volume boost for a group of files in accordance with the level of differences between each
of them.
If the maximum level of one or more files is already at 0 dBFS, the level of all the selected
files remain unchanged after normalization. So this mode can be safely used almost systematically.
--mix_rms_album<dBFS>
Action on a group of files.
Adjusting the average volume for a group of files respecting average level of the differences
between each of them.
The selecting a value for a file modifies the other files in the group.
--fix_rms<dBFS>
Action on a single file.
Adjusting the average volume of each file.. The selecting a value for a file.
