Hey all,
My mp3 collection dates from the '98-'99 timeframe @ 128. Some normalized. Most are muddy/bad/just plain suck. I plan on re-doing the whole 5GB's at 320K, VBR @ Highest and Freq at 44khz. I have a mild hearing loss in upper and middle registers.
Question:
1. Should I rip at 48kHz vs 44kHz?
2. For my hearing loss can I downgrade sampling to 256 and not hear it? I can differentiate between 192 and 256.
3. I don't burn to CDDA but should I rip/encode at highest available to protect my options even if I can't hear everything?
Thanks
