How to Remove Duplicate Songs with Ease (And Keep Your Best Versions)

Remove duplicate songs with Audio Comparer

If your music collection has grown over the years, you likely have dozens — or even hundreds — of duplicate songs hiding in plain sight. They come from re-downloads, CD rips, device syncs, and cloud backups. The result? A cluttered library, wasted storage, and the frustration of hearing the same song twice in a row.

Manually finding and removing duplicates is slow and error-prone. But there’s a better way: Audio Comparer automatically finds and removes duplicates by analyzing the actual sound of your music — not just filenames or tags.

Why Audio Comparer Works When Other Tools Fail

Most duplicate finders only check file names, sizes, or metadata. But what if:

  • The same song is saved as “Track01.mp3” and “Artist - Song.mp3”?
  • You have a 128kbps MP3 and a 320kbps version?
  • The tags are missing or incorrect?

These files are identical in sound but invisible to basic tools. Audio Comparer "listens" to each song and uses audio fingerprinting to match them — even across different formats like MP3, FLAC, WMA, AAC, and OGG.

How to Remove Duplicates in 3 Simple Steps

  1. Scan your library. Audio Comparer analyzes every song in seconds, building an audio database.
  2. Review the results. Duplicates are grouped in a clear tree view. You can preview any track with the built-in player.
  3. Delete or move. Choose which version to keep (best quality, preferred format) and remove the rest in one click.

The process is fast, safe, and requires no manual effort.

Works with iTunes and Keeps Your Best Files

Audio Comparer integrates with iTunes, so you can clean your library without losing playlists, ratings, or play history. It even:

  • Automatically updates your iTunes library when you delete a file
  • Compares audio quality to help you keep the best version
  • Handles files with missing or incorrect tags

No Risk, Full Control

You’re always in control:

  • Preview any song before deletion
  • Manually select which duplicates to remove
  • Move files to a backup folder instead of deleting them

Audio Comparer never modifies your files without your permission.
