I thought most would say the quality should be the same, but I will look more into the things people mentioned. I would listen to the exported wav in my windows media player, and I thought it sounded not as loud, or good, but it could be in my mind lol.
Try Crystal Wolf Player
Windows media player has its own volume control, it also feeds into the windows mixer, which is another volume control. There may be other settings that affect the way things sound in it.
Audacity should be going straight to the soundcard, bypassing all the windows nonsense. That could account for the differences you heard, especially the volume.
Well, if it is there in the wav, but not on the CD, then it a degradation.
That is not a proper sentence and I can't figure out what you meant to say.If we call that a loss of sound quality would be up the burn master : )
What?Light will pass through the holes in some of my CDs. hahah
I believe it was me. You don't think the bler rate on a data cd is any better than an audio cd, do you? Yet your resume, ransom notes, **** stash, etc... all seem to make it on to the CD and on to another computer without being changed.Someone said it would be an exact copy. Who was that ?
Selecting 32-bit float, the best quality sample rate converter settings and triangle dither should give the best results.
