Sony_Fan Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 For some reason when you convert MP3 to ATRAC3plus (Hi-SP), the sound quality is horrible. This was not a problem with earlier versions of SS. What changed in SS 4.3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcnet Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I've had the same problem with some Mp3s.If the samplerate (not bitrate) of the mp3 is 44100hz, then the mp3->atrac conversion is just fine and the quality is acceptableIf the samplerate of the mp3 is anything else, then Sonicstage will try and resample the audio to 44100hz. Sonicstage is rubbish at doing this and makes a complete hash of the audio quality. To solve this I just converted all the mp3' that do not have a 44100hz sample rate to WAV, down/up sampled them to 44100hz using cooledit, and then imported the result into SonicStage. Much better quality (although you do lose tags and time with this method) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
