FW: [motm] [Semi-OT] MP3ing MOTM music
2000-05-27 by Tkacs, Ken
This is an interesting question. I myself have found that, if I create an MP3 from a CD, it sounds pretty decent. If I take one of my *own* tracks, I'm not at all happy with the sound. I can't tell if that's because: a) I'm more critical of my own work's sound; b) my music isn't pop, but more textural, and details count; or, c) I don't know what I'm doing with the encoder. I usually have to crank the "quality" level on the compressor way up, creating files too large to post on my web site, whereas with other music, I'm satified at middle-quality settings. I'd like to hear other opinions on this, too. -----Original Message----- Anyway - How close do your MP3s sound to what you think of as your "real" track?
