Re: .MP3 or .Wav
There are several levels of MP3. The larger the MP3 file is for a given Wave file, the better the audio quality. The largest file is the one that is not compressed at all and is the original Wave file. Now there are several levels of Wave files also but the Wave file quality is determined at recording time and once the recording is made the quality of the Wave file can not be changed. I can compress a given Wave file into any one of several levels of MP3. What level of MP3 I use depends on what sort of audio quality I want and how much room I have on my hard drive. I usually compress my music to 128 Kilo Bits per Second MP3. This shrinks a Wave file down to one tenth of its original size. With this level of compression, some people can hear the loss in audio quality and some can't. A CD quality Wave file plays at 1378 Kilo Bits per Second. I usually compress speech down to 32 Kilo Bits per Second MP3. This shrinks a Wave file down to one fortieth its original size. Music would sound bad at this level for most anyone but speech quality here is good enough for me. I think most CD players these days can play MP3 files as well as regular CDs. Mine does and I bought it four years ago. If I bought a new CD player today though I would still check to be sure that it would play MP3s. Jerry Chirp|Chirp|Chirp: It's the Bat, Chirping Bat .Com !

Re: .MP3 or .Wav
High Jerry, I got a Sherwood 5 disc changer for my birthday for one of my vintage stereo systems. I put a cd that was full of mp three files in it, but it wouldn't play it. So I scanned the user manual in to Open Book to find out why it wouldn't play mp three cds, it has a list of types of cds that it will play. It will play cdrs and cdrws, but it says it won't play mp three cds. I guess you have to look closely for a hi fi cd player/changer that will play mp three cds as well as all of the others which is what I plan to do.

Re: mp3 or wav
Hi Morey, part of the answer might lay in the recording program you use. If you are doing editing, gold wave, for example, only edits in wave files. So noise reduction, pop and click removal, etc, has to be done in wave, before converting to other formats.

Re: mp3 or wav
Your computer will record to wav format by default, but you can choose what format the recording is rendered to when it is saved. I suggest that you choose to save your recording as an MP3, with a bit depth of at least 192 KBPS, and a sampling rate of 44100HZ. I tend to use 192 KBPS or higher for all my music. The optimum would be 256 KBPS, because it's still pretty small, but it is very difficult for the human ear to pick up the compression errors at that bit depth. You might notice that something isn't quite right at 192 KBPS, but that's usually only on high frequency sounds like symbols etc. Bit depths like 160, 128 and 112 KBPS are really not all that great for music. If you choose to store your music in the Ogg format, you can choose a bit depth of say, 128 KBPS, or even 112 KBPS, because OGG quality is better than MP3 at lower bit depths. You should remember however, that whatever format you choose in the end, you must make sure that everything is set to stereo when you save your recording! So many times I've recorded something, and forgotten that my last recording was a mono one, and I've gone and saved my lovely stereo recording as a mono one and had to start all over again!

Re: mp3 or wav
Beg to differ here. As long as you do not change bit rates, encoding an MP3 from a wav file, and then going back to Wav from that same MP3 later on will not cause a loss in quality. That is to say, your newly rendered Wav file will be the same quality as your MP3 file, because a Wav file is a photographic image of your MP3. You can go back to a new MP3 from your second Wav and so on, and there will be no noticeable loss of quality as long as your MP3 bit depth does not drop below 320 KBPS every time you encode back to MP3. Of course there will eventually be a decay in the audio quality, but you'd have to swap back and forward an unlikely number of times before this happens, and hey ... Who's really gonna sit there and do that anyway? In terms of switching backwards and forwards 3 or 4 times though ... no problem. You just have to choose a bit depth of at least 224 KBPS when encoding each time, but preferably 320 KBPS. Regards, Matt --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Re: mp3 or wav
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I would imagine that's the best obtainable but the problem is that those programmes that rely on the GUI version of LAME (LAME.ENC.DLL) think its called, will most likely not be able to use all the settings which allow extra processing, if your ripper allows the use of the LAME command line utility (LAME.EXE) then you'll be far better off as you can customise the encoder for all the latest options, Exact Audio Copy and Easy CD DA Extractor are 2 rippers I know of which allow the use of external compressors.

Re: mp3 or wav
It's all up to you and the settings you pick. For sure, if you picked .WAV, it would be as complete a copy as you could get and you could always convert from that to something else later. On the other hand, you would still get compression, saving space, even at 256 or 320 using MP3, and it would sound great. Could you tell the difference in a double blind test? I doubt it. Could you play MP3s on any cd player in case you wanted?
