Is there any sound or quality
reduction when I edit my mp3 file many times?
MP3 files are highly
compressed or lossy compression wave files. They are about 1/10 the size of wave files. MP3s are
created by taking wave audio data and processing it with a special
algorithm. This algorithm removes parts of the audio that practically cannot
be detected with the human ear; in actuality, there will be some degradation
of quality, this depends on the quality/bit-rate you choose to encode the file.
(Lower the bit-rate, Higher the quality reduction).
Mp3 conversion should be done
only once after completing your editing. To send audio file to others
through internet or writing to Mp3 CD use *.Mp3 format. Still keep the
master copy as *.Wav file before converting to Mp3 format.
While opening and saving the Mp3
files many times, the quality will be reduced for each time. Better to save
using the normal audio format (*.Wav).
