I'm currently working on a project and I need to know what peoples thoughts are on this subject. Do you guys buy WAV's over MP3's, or do you actually think the difference in quality isn't worth the price/disk space etc?
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated, ta
Yo man, how you keeping Mucka? Personally, I don't mind either- I edit EVERYTHING anyway. If I don't like the way something sounds I will Import it to a programme and mess with it until I do.
Dunno if this is any use to you mate!
this has to be a joke surely? please, please, please say it's a joke

Apologies if this is a frequent topic, I'm not a regular round here...
its only slightly less frequent than vinyl vs digital :-)
vinyl sounds the better than the both :)
There is a BLOODY MASSIVE sticky at the top of this thread that covers this, in HUGE detail.
stop being lazy and read it before you come asking the same damn questions.
C'mon. This fella is new to the board, make him feel welcome. EVERY topic has been done here at some point...
Roman - I go for 320 MP3. You can add ID tags, files are smaller and easier to store and i can't notice any sound quality difference between 320 and WAV on any system. I can't see the point in paying for WAVs when they don't do anything more than I need, but then I don't really do much editing work. If I did I would probably buy the WAV.
ok maybe your right... roman... i apolosie.Quote:

if you are using ableton, then buy the wavs. ableton converts mp3s to wavs anyhow, so may as well just stick to the source.
:D

I've not come a browsin' on here for a year or so now cause it just makes me angry, this kind of situation is why.
Someone's not allowed to just come on and ask a straight up question, oh no, they've got the trawl the millions of pages of shite being talked by the same group of folk just to find their particular (often blinkered) opinions on the subject, which may have changed since then, anyways - depending what Richie Hawtin* has said about the same situation.
If you're in a kitchen why spend hours reading a book on how to cook something if all the ingredients are laid out around you, you can usually just ask a chef.
This kitchen just seems to be chocka wi Gordon Ramsay types, only you actually have to have something worthwhile to say occasionally (like the man himself) rather than just behaving like a bunch of boorish pricks.
Oh, and Roman, for the record I use serato and have no problem with 192kbps or 320kbps mp3 files as long as they're not encoded on some bullshit-assed freeware encoder.
I might take another years break now :-O
*Insert name of producer you pointlessly idolise here.

So as not to derail I'll answer ya quick !Quote:
