Optimizing WMA files
I have a Rio Carbon with about 3gb of WMA files on it... many of which
I did not take the time to optimize before loading them on. Listening to the music now is not as much fun as it used to be because I'm so tired of the varying audio levels and frequency patterns from one song to another. Here's my question: It seems to me that it's just not worth the effort to try and optimize the files now because they are already compressed, and before they could be optimized they would first have to be converted to WAVE, optimized, and then re-compressed. Which is a lot of work, and they would probably end up sounding even worse than they do now. Am I right about this, or is there an easy solution? C. Price |
