MP3 vs wave in audio-heavy projects

• MP3 to wav - the amount of information you let go

  Hello!

  We have scanned 1000 wav files large to 44100, 32-bit, stereo 500 discs vinil and audio cassettes. Then we cut them into smaller parts (songs units per person) and convert these parts directly to MP3 (44100, 16 bit, stereo) batch.

  Now, we would like to have these units samller also in wav format (44100, 16 bit, stereo,), not only in mp3 format.

  We have two options to:

  1. to cut again and convert it to source original wav files (44100, 32-bit, stereo) to small wav files (44100, 16 bit, stereo).

  2. If you want to convert to mp3 (44100, 16 bit, stereo) directly to wav in batch (44100, 16 bit, stereo).

  We would like to know how much information lose us if we choose the second option instead of the first - convert mp3 to wav? In this particular case, it is much faster and easier!

  The main problem is that we cut wav files original (44100, 32-bit, stereo) in a number of smaller units (about 6,000 smaller units) and save the package in the process directly in mp3 format. If you have to cut them again to our original wav files and save them as wav (like mp3) it would take us a couple of weeks!

  Thanks for the reply.

  How you lose depends entirely on what rate the MP3 files have been encoded to. If they were musical and encoded files in 128 k MP3 then the loss will be noticeable by most people in a direct comparison. If you have been lucky enough to save them at 192 k or higher, then the differences will be less obvious.

  If you want a rough idea of what you lose, it is essentially in the quieter parts which are 'hidden' by more strong adjacent sounds. What is happening is that the quieter sounds are stored at a lower resolution (fewer bits). This gives rise to what we call a 'coding gain", and this is the measure of what determines the final quality. It tends to give a quality "unreal" sort of sounds and is not only pleasant to listen to the very bottom of encoding rates.

  If the goal of saving the original in the form of wav files was somehow an attempt to keep a copy of superior quality, which must have - then you have really a re-cutting choices; You have to do. In the contrary case, it there was absolutely no reason to do this exercise in the order that you did it in the first place, was there?

  So despite the work, I see No point in doing so from MP3 files in any case, when you have 32-bit original which only require redividing and name.

  • Therefore, install the driver Audio win 7 (taken from the Dell site)?
  • Or, win 8 / 8.1?
  • What is the compatible Win 10?

  Hello. According to Microsoft, most of the drivers for Win 7, 8 and 8.1 are compatible with 10. However the audio drivers can be finicky. I would try all of them, one at a time until you find one that works, but you might have more luck if you install them using the compatibility mode. Here's a way to do it:

  1. download and save the audio driver on your computer or to any location on the hard drive...
  2. double-click on the new folder to extract (unzip) the files of the driver.
  3. the wizard of the extractor will create a new folder for the driver files. It will be located at the "c:\dell\drivers\xxxxxx". Note the exact location that the wizard creates.
  4. If the driver begins to install automatically, stop (cancel) installation.
  5. search for the driver files on the hard drive (the location you noted).
  6. find the file "setup.exe".
  7. right click on setup.exe to open the context menu.
  8. Select Properties.
  9. Select the Compatibility tab.
  10. check the box "run this program in compatibility mode for"... Winxxx' (Windows no matter what the pilot was originally intended for).

  If this does not help then I would return just the laptop to Win7 where the audio worked right.

• Import another project - .mp3 or .wav audio files.  Which one?

  OS:                         XP

  Captivate Version: 3

  Exit: be imported into Powerpoint and then published via Adobe Presenter of the .swf files

  I plan on importing an old Captivate project audio in my current project of Captivate.

  I have the choice of either import .wav or .mp3 files.  What files can I import?

  Thank you

  PJL

  Hello

  I would incorporate the MP3 versions.

  However, note that someone ' do u, Captivate will convert any format you choose the different format. For example, if you import a WAV, you will see convert to MP3. If you import an MP3, it will convert to WAV format. As I understand it, the MP3 is the only format actually used in the output. WAV format is necessary if you want to make changes?

  See you soon... Rick

• conversion of MP3 or WAV Audio 4 M - Peg files

  I transferred music from the hard drive of my brother.  His music has been created through Itunes and is MPEG 4 and works very well on his Ipod.  I tried to get these songs into WMP with no luck.  Does anyone know a Media Converter good or another way to add these files to WMP?  I have the latest WMP and Vista.

• Prevent the Captivate Resaving mp3 to wav

  How can I stop this? This is a huge flaw on the part of captivate. When I import an audio clip mp3 on a legend of the feedback, 90% of the time records in a wav file and quadruple the size!

  Audio WAV is very large and makes my much larger projects they need to do.

  Captivate 5

  Expert user

  Hello

  You can't stop it. It is simply the average Captivate works. Insert MP3, it converts to WAV format. Insert the WAV, converts it to MP3. Both formats must exist in their own country. I suspect because it is only capable of editing WAV.

  When you publish your output, only the MP3 version is actually used.

• How can I burn my recordings of .wav for audio disc?

  I have a portable recorder on which I made some recordings of playing me the piano.  I am now using WMP to try to burn them to an audio CD.  I have a red beside them, X once I coached in WMP which says that the drive can not burn because WMP cannot determine the length of the files.  He is said to play each of in WMP might help.  There can be no.  Can someone advise me please the easy/more fastest way to reach my goal?

  Thank you

  Just a guess... but it may be worth trying to convert the. WAV files to the. Mp3 format.
  The conversion software might recognize and specify the duration.
