| Name | Description |
| Speek's Frontend | An excellent win32 graphical frontend for WavPack that supports all the major features, and is also handy for batch operations. Highly recommended! |
| Foobar2000 | A new, high quality audio player that supports WavPack in the normal installation. Foobar2000 has full ReplayGain support and can play all formats of WavPack files including multichannel and those with embedded cuesheets. Foobar2000 also has a powerful tag editor and music converter that work perfectly with WavPack. |
| Winamp | The most popular audio player can play WavPack files using the plugin available on the download page. Includes support for the Media Library and ReplayGain. |
| Adobe Audition | A very popular audio editor (formerly CoolEdit). The filter available on the download page not only allows loading and saving all types of WavPack files, but is the only lossless Audition filter that works with the native 32-bit data and the only one that preserves the extra information (like cues and playlists). |
| Apollo | A well established audio player known for its superb sound quality. Can play WavPack files using the plugin available on the download page. Includes ReplayGain support. |
| Ahead Nero | The most popular CD authoring tool that comes pre-packaged with many CD/DVD burners. The plugin available on the download page allows burning audio CDs directly from WavPack files, ripping CDs directly to WavPack files, and converting to and from the WavPack format. |
| dBpowerAMP | A popular collection of powerful tools that allow you to do just about everything with audio files. It includes a CD ripper, an audio player, a music converter, and even a utility to record from a line-input. Works great with WavPack using the codec available directly from them. |
| EAC | Considered by many to be the most secure CD ripper. There is no WavPack plugin for EAC, but some special features have been added to WavPack to make it work particularly well with EAC's "external compressor" mode. Read all about it in this guide. |
| Mp3tag | A versatile tag editor that provides all the regular tag related functions, but also uses the WavPack library to be aware of WavPack specific information. It is also aware of and properly handles the "correction" files. Highly recommended! |
