Extract text from REAPER peak files (REPEAKS)
To convert REPEAKS peak files to another format, you need REAPER or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Waveform Cache File" file type, you need software like REAPER or a similar tool.
A .REPEAKS file is a cache file generated by REAPER, a popular digital audio workstation (DAW) developed by Cockos Incorporated. Its primary function is to store visual waveform data for audio tracks within a project. Instead of recalculating the visual peaks of an audio file every time you open a session, REAPER loads this lightweight data to display the waveform instantly.
The biggest disadvantage of the .REPEAKS format is that it does not contain any actual audio data. It is strictly a proprietary visual cache. You cannot open it in standard media players, nor can you extract sound from it. Many users find these files annoying because REAPER generates them automatically next to the source audio files by default, leading to heavily cluttered sample libraries and folders.
Because it holds no audio, standard online converters fail to process it into an MP3 or WAV. If you are trying to "convert" this file to play music, you are looking at the wrong file. You must locate the original source audio (usually a WAV, MP3, or AIFF) that the peak file references.
Convert.Guru analyzes your REPEAKS file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our REPEAKS converter.
