Sample bitrate

Tell us how you got that killer synth effect, why you love your sequencer of choice or that you are sick of hearing the same lame preset every time you load up malstrom ¬_¬

Sample bitrate

Postby Crunchey » Sat Jun 23, 2012 5:12 pm

I've downloaded some samples from a website, but they're all 2822 bitrate. I've noticed that the samples that work all have a bitrate of 1411. Is there any way of converting 2822 to 1411...?

Wat. Do you mean as in, number of bits per second? Because that depends on both the bit depth and the sample rate. I'm not sure what you mean, but any .wav should work.

The only notable difference I could find between the samples that work and the ones that doesn't is the bitrate... I do not know specifically what the term "bitrate" means, but it's written in the "details" by rightclicking the sound file... Both files are .wav

If you're working in reason, the issue is that they are 32-bit .wavs. Get an audio converter that converts .wavs based on bit depth and convert them to 24-bit wavs.

Oh i see.

Well in that case, if you're on mac, get switch.
