My first attempts at making ktl files into WAVE into MPEG have been sonic atrocities. There seem to be larger dynamical changes than I am used to (as if there is not compromise enough in this compression scheme). How do you suggest I do this? I am using MusicMatch. I could use Sound Forge, but right now that would be inconvenient.

We do not have any experience with Windows programs for making MP3 files, but we use the Mac OS X utility called iTunes to convert AIFF files to MP3 files and have not noticed any problems with dynamic range.

Hi Bob,

I have been using CoolEdit/Pro (Win/98SE) quite successfully here (if you consider MP3 encoding a success...) The only trouble I have run into is with highly pathological recordings of intense noise, with voices burried deep within and stong interfering carriers. But normal music goes over quite well.

David,

Thanks. Perhaps it is a pathological track, at that? I certainly am not striving for normal music, here. I listened again and it sounds a little better to my ear. Still not good.
