karlo 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2005 Hello... You all like to download MP3's online right? Well, hmmm... i love to download them and burn them in a cd but there's some unanswered questions roaving in my mind. Example, I have many duplicates of one song with different file names, well, I want to remove those duplicate ones... how? And MP3 is compressed right? Is there a way to uncompress those compressed sound so that I will really do unlock the wonderful sound of the audio? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Creating an audio CD means you'll only get 80 minutes worth of music though whereas creating an MP3 or data CD will get you as much as 700MB can hold (will vary according to the bit-rate of your MP3s). With an audio CD, the quality of the audio will still be dependant on the bit-rate of the MP3 so that's why it's important to go for as high as you can get, like 320kbps.

You could open it up in a wave editing program like CoolEdit, Soundforge or Wavelab and use the filters etc and then save it out again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is how it works.. The MP3 codec samples at a certain bit rate to capture the sound levels and saves as an MP3 file.. These sound levels are like a bar chart and the uncompressed version is like a wave in a graph.. Since it has became from a wave form into barchart, the details are discarded when saved as an MP3 file.. So you cannot get back the discarded details, hence you cannot uncompress an MP3 file... Goes same for any other sound and video formats... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
