MP3 formating
Forums
Hello All,
this is my first post, which means I graduate from "Lurker". OK. I want to convert a wav file that's 37.20 mbs to one that's less than 2.0 mbs so that I can attach it to email. I tried saving as mp3 in Cool Edit pro but only got it down to 3.7mbs. Can anybody tell me how to do this.
:)
thanks
Dudley

Peaks and Limiters
Forums
I'm very green at this stuff and i ran across something i just don't get.
I squashed a mix in Wavelab with the L2 to -0.2db with threshold of -7 and Arc on, the wavelab output meter actually read -0.2db, ok fine and dandy.

D.C. offset. huh?
Forums
I am trying to better understand the mechanics of D.C. offset.
All I know is that it will reduce dynamic range and create subharmonic distortion. I assume that these promlems arise from dsp and errors in ad conversion.
Are my assumptions or believeed knowledge wrong?
Please, someone shed some light on the subject.

Labeling of master on CD-R
Forums
When providing a master version on CD-R what is the best way to label the disc? After reading various pros and cons of the different methods used, is using a water-soluble ink pen the best answer?

Split track CDs
Forums
I think this might really be a mastering question - only in reverse.
A client brought in a split track CD and wanted me to adjust the level of the vocal track relative to the music track. Piece of cake in the DAW.

Mastering Experiences
Forums
I'd like to poll the membership as to their experiences in mastering. Have you brought a project to a mastering engineer? Did the mastering process improve the final product or not? Was it worth the time & money? Was the engineer responsive to your needs? Would you do it again? Do you prefer to do mastering yourself & if so, why?

Bottom end repair ?
Forums
:) In the initial analisis of a song, and if you detect some bass problems, do you tame the EQ on the bottom to a predetermined starting point, or proceed to make individual content corrections rooted on past experience, and the impression from your system?
