Re: 16 bit PCM vs 32 bit float for ripped from CD
Unfortunately, Foobar is Fubar on my Android moto e 1st gen. First, I could not figure the interface. I searched for and selected one artist from my library, which I had set up earlier, played the songs, and then could not get to any other songs/artists in the library. I went back to using PowerAmp ...

Re: 16 bit PCM vs 32 bit float for ripped from CD
Does your MP3 player support "Replay Gain" ? What I am trying to do is preserve the quality of the wav file Keep a copy of the original, unmodified 16-bit rip. All I am doing in Audacity is changing the audio level of the music so that all songs are more or less the same volume level when I listen ...

Re: File size doubles after limiting
32-bit float WAV is an unusual format. Are you sure that your original files are 32-bit float? Audacity converts most file types to 32-bit float on import, which is great while editing / processing, but rather OTT for the final export (and may not play in some applications). I'd recommend exporting...

Re: 16 bit PCM vs 32 bit float for ripped from CD
Audio CDs are produced in 44100, 16-bit, Stereo. The file structure is a little wacky to get as much music on the disk as possible, but the music itself is of that quality. If all you're doing is "converting" from hardware to files, a simple ripper to 44100, 16-bit, Stereo will give a perfect copy....

16 bit PCM vs 32 bit float for ripped from CD
Hi; I am ripping my CD's to .wav files using iTunes latest version. When I process the files with Audacity, I save as 32 bit float. The file size for the 32 bit float is 2x that of the original wav file. Is it really worth the extra disk space to have the processed files as 32 bit float? Is iTunes r...

File size doubles after limiting
Hi;
I am working with .wav (32-bit float) files in Audacity. I noticed that after I apply hard limiting, then save the file again in same format, the file size (Windows 7) just about doubles. Is this normal in order to keep the file lossless?
Thanks
