Audiochecker is described as 'Tiny and portable tool which analyzes the source of WAV, LPAC, SHN, APE and FLAC audio formats, in order to verify if the encoding is lossless. If not, it means that the files in question are converted from other formats with lower quality, such as MP3' and is an app in the audio & music category. There are six alternatives to Audiochecker for Windows, Mac, Linux and Web-based. The best Audiochecker alternative is Spectro for Mac. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try Fakin' The Funk? or auCDtect Task Manager. Other great apps like Audiochecker are Spectro, Tau Analyzer and Spectrum.
