Audiochecker
Audiochecker - Check The Origins Of Your Music Files By Mike Fagan Published Apr 26, 2010 For the audiophile, FLAC, short for F ree L ossless A udio C odec, is an absolute gift. Since the codec is open source, software that will convert your CDs into this widely supported format is free and easy to find. The only way to be certain if something is lossless is if you have the original file to compare it to. You can do a md5 checksum of the decoded output and compare, or similar methods like compare waveforms.
I got 2 set of FLACs and a MP3
1 FLAC is a vinyl rip (first stored as 24-bit WAV and then compressed to a 24-bit FLAC)
1 FLAC that's a 'remaster' (based on the labelowner's words)
and
1 MP3 that goes up to 22khz.
First example is my vinyl rip. This one (with more from the same artists) have most likely used a cutoff filter some kind, as most of these vinyls predates the wider use of MP3.
Second example is from a remaster bundle that was sold in wav format, but clearly contains mp3 compression artifacts. FTF detects this as alright because there isn't a clear cut off because the remasters ups the ante on the artifacts (even though visible there is a clear cut-off)
Third and last example is a MP3 from a label where quite a lot of the mp3's are filling the spectrum with no clear compression artifacts. If I were to trans-code this to a FLAC, I doubt FTF would know it was from a MP3... which it didn't, as it said the file wasn't fake (when I clearly trans-coded it from a MP3!)
Note: I am using Foobar2k to see if a file is really fake or not, as it's the only tool I have compared to spek and FTF that actually shows mp3 artifacts at higher freq.

Audiochecker 2.0 beta (build 457) Description:
Audiochecker verifies the source of WAV, LPAC, SHN, APE and FLAC audio file formats.
The software can decide in most cases, whether the encoding is lossless or not (transcoded from other lossy, for example MP3 audio source). If not, the 'lossless' file is fake.
The software uses an outside method called auCDtect, developed by True-Audio Software. The percents given by Audiochecker are the result of the analysis of their software.
For operating correctly it needs the decoders of the file formats above and the auCDtect.EXE file.
