Recording question....

Post by Mark Krutke »

I bought a program called "Total Recorder", enabling me to record real player files to CD, but when I listen to what I've recorded onto CD, it sounds very tinny and cheap, with almost a distortion where the highs are on the recording . I've checked the levels and they're right. Has anybody come across this?

Hi! Mark
Don't be dissappointed, my playing sounds like that all the time. Mostly cheap!! Image

Im going to guess that the problem stems from high level compression used in constructing Streaming Real Wavs...The player probably uncompresses the file before it is played...just a guess...I have no solution...I have tried to record real wavs before...the best is back to analog then convert back to digital...

In my "Accelerated Recording" section on Total Recorder, there is a place where one can record faster than real-time, and when I did that, I came up with problems with my playback. This is what the problem was. I record "real time" now, and everything's all right. Thanks. Now I should take some "real time" and practice Image.
