Illustrate heeft zojuist dBpowerAMP Music Converter release 11 uitgebracht. Dit programma is een veelzijdig audiobewerkingsprogramma. Zo kunnen cd's worden geript, audio-bestanden van en naar onder andere mp3, mp4, wma, Ogg Vorbis, AAC, Monkeys Audio en FLAC worden geconverteerd (meer formaten kunnen als plugin worden toegevoegd), mp3-tags worden aangepast, en integreert het zich volledig in de Windows Explorer.
