Audio Fake Detector PRO is a lightweight tool designed to analyze audio files and detect fake MP3 or FLAC files that were transcoded from lossy sources but incorrectly appear as high-bitrate or lossless.
It is mainly intended for verifying the authenticity of audio files from online sharing platforms such as SoundCloud, where files are often mislabeled or re-encoded.
The software uses spectrogram-based analysis along with FFmpeg and auCDtect to identify:
frequency cutoffs typical of compressed audio
inconsistencies within different parts of the same file
possible lossy-to-lossless transcodes
classification criteria (FAKE detection logic v5.4)
The software may be flagged as a false positive by some antivirus engines.

Audio Fake Detector PRO v5.4
Analyzes fake 320 kbps MP3 & transcodes, detecting encoding artifacts
G.Drive: ZIP (PS1+EXE) ↓ https://bit.ly/4tczm8q | EXE-only ↓ https://bit.ly/4tjxdIm
⚠️ Heuristic detections apply only to PS1/EXE, not audio
What's new
- ffmpeg update check throttled to once per day.
A timestamp ($ToolDir\ffmpeg_check.stamp) is written after each successful check; subsequent launches within the same calendar day
skip the GitHub / gyan.dev HTTP call entirely, cutting startup time by ~1-3 s on slow connections.
The stamp is updated only when the check actually completes (network failures do not reset the 24-hour window)
- Exe builded with PS2EXE
