666him Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 (edited) I have a sony MZ-NH600 and used to use sonicstage 2 untill i recently got Sonicstage 4 and up till a few days ago things were fine untill i transfered 2 or 3 tracks over and when i listened to them the sound was not right with a weird sound in the background. I've had no trouble with ss 2 whatsoever so i dunno if it is ss 4 or what?? any help would be great.*EDIT* i beleive it is ss 4 beacuse when i play songs in it from my pc i get the same sound as playing them from my minidisc but when i play the songs in Media player or winamp they are ok.

danielbb90 Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 (edited) Are these MP3's? (guessing by you playing them in WMP)If they are, converting from one lossy codec to another lossy codec will always add defects(quality loss)...Try useing a PCM soruce, (a cd ect)If you have to use lossy codecs try to use 320 or heigher..As for the problem not beeing there in earlyer versions of sonicstage, maby thats something to do with how they have developed the codec to get better quality sounds? Maby in that it just dousn't convert the mp3 waveform as effectivly now as it did before?This is just one possability, maby its not that... But I cant think of anyother reason for it?

danielbb90 Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 (edited) Do you have the origional CD's? Or have you ever?If you have you can rip them in SonicStage to the atrac3(plus) bitrate you want to use!That should give you a better sonding file...You can always try the SonicStage 3.4 full download that is still on this site,http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?showtopic=11889That might be better?http://forums.minidisc.org/downloads/details.php?file=21 Edited June 13, 2006 by danielbb90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
666him Posted June 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 yes i do own the original cd's and i'll try again to rip them to atrac3(plus)and see if that can help. if not i'll uninstall Sonicstage completly and try 3.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
666him Posted June 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 (edited) right i installed ss 3.4 and ripped a cd using simple burner and everything was ok i got perfect sound and no weird noises that i was getting. but now i need to try and use Sonicstage to transfer mp3's and hope that they transfer well without the weird noises.*edit* i transfered a few tracks over and got the saame wierd noise so i deleted them of MD and i went to the options a changed bit rate to 48kbps and transfered them over again and they for NOW! seem okthank you danielbb90 for you help Edited June 14, 2006 by killinglonelinesshim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
