jay1970 Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Okay, I have ripped some music but the files are big approx. 34 MB per file. Kbps is 1411. Two questions.3 of the 14 tracks need to be edited. I have Audacity. The files that need to be edited, have to be converted to .wav right to be able to edit in Audacity.Question 1: do I have to convert all the tracks to .wav to avoid different compressions?After editingQuestion 2: How can I easily convert all the .wav files to another bitrate (192?) so I can fit it on a CD without decreasing sound quality.

A440 Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 (edited) Audacity turns any file you're working on into its own format, .aup, as it opens the file, and actually performs your edit on that. Then you "Export as .wav" or "Export as .mp3."Audacity can open .wav and .mp3 files for editing. So you can rip directly to mp3, rather than .wav, or convert after you edit--just Export as .mp3. If you have a lot of .wav files you need to convert to .mp3, download Dbpoweramp from Programs--it converts between many different file types. Converting to .mp3 still changes sound quality, but at higher bitrates (192 and up) most people can't tell the difference between .mp3 and .wav. A conventional CD player may not play mp3 files, by the way. Edited April 9, 2006 by A440 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
