Create new C# Windows Project

Right click References >> Add Reference, select browse and add the dmcscripting.dll from the dBpoweramp install folder.

Check that the properties of your C# project have the Platform Target set to 64 bit (if dBpoweramp is installed on 64 bit Windows). 

At the top of your .cs code window add (under system ones):

  using DMCSCRIPTINGLib;

Then access dMC with:

  DMCSCRIPTINGLib.Converter dMC = new DMCSCRIPTINGLib.Converter();

Example code:

            // Get list of compression codecs
            for (int i = 0; ; i++)
            {
                string Codec;
                Codec = dMC.get_GetCompressions(i);
                if (Codec.Length == 0)
                    break;
                MessageBox.Show(Codec);
            }


            // Do one conversion
            dMC.Convert("z:\\abc.ape", "z:\\new file.mp3", "mp3 (Lame)", "-b=128", "");


            // Read All IDTags
            for (int i = 0; ; i++)
            {
                string Element = "", TagVal = "";
                dMC.ReadIDTag("z:\\abc.ape", i, ref Element, ref TagVal);
                if (Element.Length == 0)
                    break;
                MessageBox.Show(Element + ": " + TagVal);
            }


            // Write an ID Tag
            dMC.WriteIDTag("z:\\abc.ape", "element", "value");


            // Show compression settings page
            string CompressionCLI = "-b=128";
            CompressionCLI = dMC.get_ShowSettings("mp3 (Lame)", CompressionCLI);
            MessageBox.Show("Returned Compression CLI: " + CompressionCLI);


            // Read audio properties of a file
            string AudioProps = dMC.get_AudioProperties("z:\\abc.ape");
            MessageBox.Show(AudioProps);



	    // Convert all Ape files in folder
            string []ConvertFiles = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles("z:\\", "*.ape");
            for (int i = 0; i < ConvertFiles.Length; i++)
            {
                string ToFile = ConvertFiles[i] + ".mp3";
                dMC.Convert(ConvertFiles[i], ToFile, "mp3 (Lame)", "-b=128", "");
            }
