More audiobook goodness
Audiobooks, podcasts, and audioplays continue to be popular, and we'll help you make the most of them. Many audioplays are split up into dozens of smaller files, e.g. for easier marketing on Spotify.

With Burning Studio, you decide the length of your audio files, so listening becomes a fun and smooth experience again!
Ready for H.265–HEVC ready!
Codecs are the lifeblood of multimedia projects—and Ashampoo Burning Studio ships with a new star: H.265 (also called HEVC). This codec offers the same quality but 50% higher data compression rates compared to its predecessor! Take advantage of modern encoders and process your H.265 footage, e.g. shot with a digital camera, cellphone or action cam, effortlessly!
Disc ripping has always been super-comfortable and easy with Burning Studio. The program recognizes CD contents automatically and retrieves suitable metadata and cover artwork automatically for you. Burning Studio has seen a complete overhaul of this technology for better speed and exact matches, from covers, to artists, title names and more. It's the fastest and most convenient ripping feature of any Burning Studio yet!

Managing backups is equally straightforward with one-click archive recovery and updates. It couldn't be any easier! And don't worry if your files don't fit on a single disc. Our disc spanning technology takes care of that and automatically spreads your archives across multiple volumes, along with compression and password protection for added security!
