Hey everybody,

I have recorded my songs in 24-bit, and as the last part of the process, as I am mastering, I am also using a 'UV22HR' plugin to convert into 16 as I create the WAV files. At least that's my understanding.  However, I'm reading now that I should mix to the same bit rate as my session was recorded in. 

As requested, here is a video testing SoundCloud's conversion quality.
Let me know what you think

Hey ya'll! Long time no see. For the past year or two I haven't been doing much recording or spending time online, but the past few weeks have brought major changes to my life, so I hope to be around more. I'm living in Canada again, and I'm hoping to stay here for a while.

Anyways...

My wife has a small business selling spoken word recordings.
I'm her tech guy, photographer, and financier.

I need to convert 500 wavs. to MP3 format and look for a software. I tried the Sound Forge batch converter but it only allows bitrates up to 128 and I need 256 minimum.

Any ideas?

Hi guys,

Just upgraded my studio with a brand new Focurite liquid Saffire 56 and an Octopre MkII.

With every changes to my gear, I try to better myself. I band project is coming soon, they're gonna track in my studio and mix and master at another place. So, I need to export wave files at there best.

Hey everyone,

I'm in need a professional interface with professional grade conversion, was wondering if the MOTU 24 i/o would do the trick or do I need
to spend the extra money on a Avid HD interface or an Apogee Symphony, to get a truly professional conversion quality?
Ill be using it with outboard high end preamps.

THE DEAL IS. I have been using an octopre to get into Pro Tools until now through optical lightpipe. The ADAT card fried on the darn thing. Im looking to find the best way to get into Pro Tools through Pro Tools from external preamps. I dont need the device to have preamps in it, I have plenty of nice pres I just need analog line level conversion into ADAT lightpipe.

Hi! I am interested in doing line-in recordings and I need something portable. After realising that my laptop (using Realtek ALC892) could do only 16bit/192khz recordings, I decided to research more and had the following options.

This might sound a bit silly however I have a 22hour long .wmv file and someone has asked me to open it up and edit into 22x1 hour files. Pro Tools, Wave Lab, Reason 6 (thought I'd try!) and sound Forge were all unable to open it.

ANY SUGGESTIONS?
