Trust your ears.Test the difference. Two codec chains. Your own audio. A blind listening test that keeps the labels out of the way.
Audivane 0.1.0 is in preparation. Release status
Blind audio comparisons. X The same as A or B.Can you tell which?
ABX compares a hidden sample against two known references. The answer stays hidden while you listen. Audio stays on your machine. Your files. Your listening setup. No audio uploads.
Less expectation. More listening. Bring a track you know. Import a local audio file and choose the codec chain for each side. Both chains start from the same decoded source.
Prepare a fair comparison. Audivane aligns and level-matches the pair, verifies the delivered audio, and stages the first trial paused. You decide when to play.
Listen. Choose. Review. Switch between A, B and X, then decide whether X is A or B. Complete the planned trials and review the results and preparation evidence.
Understand the method. Short, exact answers about how Audivane tests — and how to set up, run and read a comparison that means something.
Documentation → How blind ABX testing works What an ABX test asks, why the labels stay hidden while you listen, and how Audivane keeps a codec comparison fair.Scientific policy How Audivane prepares, verifies, blinds and scores a comparison — and precisely what its evidence does and does not establish.Audio formats and limits Accepted file types, size and duration ceilings, sample-rate and channel policy, and what Audivane refuses rather than shortens.Release status Where Audivane 0.1.0 stands — platform readiness, the download formats planned first, and what is not available yet.Licenses and third-party credits Which licenses cover Audivane's own code, the FFmpeg and codec libraries, the fonts and the desktop runtime.Guides → Run your first ABX test A step-by-step walkthrough of a full comparison — import audio, configure two chains, prepare, listen blind, and read the evidence.Set up a fair listening test What you control around the app — output route, volume, room, material and expectations — so a result means something.Understanding your results Fixed trial counts, guessing rates, binomial evidence, and the difference between a valid run and an audible difference.A little more listening before launch. Audivane is preparing its first public release. This site is the project's home; documentation, guides, honest release status and — when published — downloads with checksums and provenance all live here.
Linux desktop Tested by the developer. Final release packaging and publication are in preparation.
Windows desktop Pending testing on Windows. No Windows download is available yet. Evidence, with its limits. Audivane records preparation, delivered-audio identity and fixed-trial ABX results. Numerical checks alone do not prove an audible difference or certify a codec. Your hardware, operating-system processing and listening conditions still matter.
