Audio Mate is a comprehensive standalone audio tool designed for playback, conversion, analysis, and comparison of sound files. It supports up to eight simultaneous slots, allowing users to manage multiple tracks efficiently. The application remembers the last used file paths for each slot, simplifying workflow and enabling quick access to frequently used audio files. Users can open files through drag and drop, double-click, or file dialog, providing flexible options for importing audio.

This tool features a built-in export function that supports popular formats such as MP3, WAV, and FLAC, complete with automatic tagging and customizable templates to streamline file organization. Audio Mate also offers detailed visual feedback, displaying waveforms alongside spectral views, which helps users quickly identify characteristics like bass intensity and overall frequency distribution. This makes it easier to analyze and compare audio tracks at a glance.

Audio Mate is compatible with Windows 7, 8, and 10 (64-bit) and Mac OS X Sierra or later, supporting both Intel and M1 processors. On Windows, an ASIO soundcard is recommended, while any soundcard works on Mac systems. The software is available as a free trial for 40 days, with the full version priced at $40, offering a cost-effective solution for audio professionals and enthusiasts seeking a powerful player and analysis tool.
