Clone Hero Songs Compressor is a tool that significantly reduces the size of your Clone Hero songs library (by approximately 45%).
Note that this process is very resource hungry and may take a long time on slower PCs. At my personal PCs library compression from size 11.4GB to 5.4GB took respectively 9 minutes (i9-7900x) and 5 minutes (78000X3D). It is of course example and results may vary depending on the user's hardware and library size.
Note: Clone Hero Songs Compressor currently only supports Windows 64-bit OS.

Such size reduction is achieved through the use of advanced compression and conversion techniques, such as those used by the Opus audio codec and JPEG image format.
Converting Audio files to Opus & PNG to JPG is handled by FFmpeg, builded thanks to media-autobuild_suite and wrapper FFMpegCore
