where can i get softwer for wavw to mp3 convert.

I have finally found the best all-in-one media app!

I wanted to let you all know about a program I recently found. I read the messages here, and thought it would be useful to you all. It truly is an incredible program. I'm a cheapo, and even I bought it recently. It does everything and does it all very well. Of course, it plays all audio and video formats, but that's not why I bought it. I like all the audio and video conversions (cd to wav, cd to mp3, wav to mp3, mp3 to wav, wma to wav, wav to wma, wav to cda, avi to mpg, mpg to avi to mpg, etc). One of its best features (for me anyway) is an awesome audio editor. You can do just about anything you'd want to do with wav, mp3, etc. Plus, it can record from mic, analog connection, cd player, tv tunner, line-in, phone line, etc. (a feature I had not been able to find anyway else). You need to click New on the File menu before you record though. It took me a while to figure that out...why it wasn't working at first. Actually, they may have changed that in the recent update anyway. I do use it's playlist sometimes for combo audio and video playlists. There are a lot of apps for that, but I like how it can play videos full screen in the playlist. I would definitely recommend it to anyone as a 5 star app because it has all the features and does them all very well. I have tried them all and have not found one that does nearly as much as Blaze Media Pro and certainly not as well. I hope this helps you all.

Improving mp3 quality

Hello. I was wondering if i downloaded a mp3 at a bitrate of 128 kbps and i wanted to improve the quality to a 192 kbps, what program should i use? i know that u can indirectly convert the 128 to a wav and then convert the wav to 192. but i heard that that is bad for 2 reasons:
1. the quality goes a little after so many conversions.
2. it doesnt help. quality doesnt increase.

so is there a program/method that actaually works? Thanks..

I Don't think all of the above are correct, though you can't improove direct quality by increasing bitrate, you can however, theoreticly at least, eliminate noises and seek patterns. I've heard of such programs but never saw one.

Re: Improving mp3 quality

IF YOU WANT IMPROVE A 128KBPS MP3 FILE TO 192KBPS ARE YOU CRAZY, BECAUSE THE QUALITY WAS LOSE.
THE BEST QUALITY VERSUS ESPACE MENORY IS 192KBPS.

you can change the bitrate but the sound will be the same

if you've ever enlarged a picture you know that the picture doesn't get better detail.....the pixels just get bigger. thats basically what switching 128 to 192. you can do it using musicmatch from musicmatch.com.....but there is no way to improve the quality

I somewhat doubt...

That it would be worth it. I'm winging it here though so take this with a pinch of salt.

If you have compressed an original WAVE file to Mp3, you are more than likely stuck with the original Bit rate. If something is compressed at 128kbps then you have already removed material to that level. Putting it back by increasing the bit rate is more than likely physically impossible. The 192Kbps will reproduce the 128 at that rate but wont magically replace the original 'lost' samples from the original 128 encoding. Let me know if you find out any different although i'm quite sure at this stage that i'm right.

Re: I somewhat doubt...

thats correct sir!

I concur - it would be like magnifying a newspaper picture - eve

: I downloaded songs from napster but they are in m3u format and i need to turn them into wavs or back to mp3s.

: : An m3u file is NOT a music file, it is simply a playlist, a list of names and locations of mp3,s. If you use quickview to view the file, or simply change the extension to .txt, you will be able to read the file and you will see what I mean.
