Hi Arthur. Joint stereo is specifically used to enhance the sound of MP3 files that have been ripped at a very low bit rate such as 128kbps. There is some math involved in the way that the stereo information is analysed and then used to enhance the sound but I don't have that depth of deta

Joint Stereo - what is it?

Hi, I've notice that mp3's at 128 kbps joint stereo seem to be better quality than normal stereo mp3's. So, what is joint-stereo and why is the quality difference present? Thanks, Arthur. ___ No banners. No pop-ups. No k

Joint_Stereo is a data-saving technique which only keeps one copy of sound data that appears on both channels, rather than two. On older, slower machines, regular (vs. joint) stereo MP3's sometimes produced a wavy effect when playing back because the slower processor couldn't ke

Bruce, I have a program called Razorlame that uses the lame engine. Yes you can get regular stereo files from this as well as joint stereo. I'm not sure what joint stereo is either. Razorlame provides a really nice interface to the lame engine so you don't have to memorize

his. The way I understand it, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong, is that a joint stereo file has one of the channels placed over top of the other one. In other words, they aren't two separate channels like they should be. Someone else can probably explain it better than I can.

Joint stereo is crap, especially if you are going to be listening to your music through good speakers. You can always tell a joint stereo file because the top end, especially the simples tend to oscillate between the speakers. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL

Hi Larry. Using variable bit rates and joint stereo really apply to the ripping stage where you're taking tracks from an audio CD and converting to MP3. It doesn't really apply to burning them to CD. You can re-encode MP3 that's at a higher bit rate and reduce it using variable

Hi Lary, you could use CDEX to re-convert the tracks, but I wouldn't recommend it because you will always lose a bit of the sound quality when you do that. What your friend probably meant was if you encoded wav or cda-files into mp3. Alex ___ PC-Audio

Hi everyone. I have a data CD which consists of assorted MP3 files. My plan was to simply copy those files, paste them into folders and burn them onto standard audio CDs. A friend claims that for best results I should burn using a variable bit rate in joint stereo mode. It is my understanding
