Subject: [LUG] Batch Processor to convert to 8bit 		Message #220830
Back in the OS9/8/7 days, there were indeed freeware and shareware apps that did batch converting to 8bit/22.05KHz. Is there anything in the OSX world????? I have a few hundred 16bit/44.1KHz files that need converting to 8bit/22.05KHz. Voice only - quality isn't a big deal (just ineligibility). f-erenc szabo, smarty pants Z+E+R+O+B+E+A+T "NOW POWERED BY THE MIRACLE OF THE TRANSISTOR!" <http://home.goodmedia.com/~zerobeat>

Also, Peak does batch processing but is a little more expensive. Cheers Hans

Voice only - quality isn't a big deal (just > ineligibility). Why not just convert them to MP3? They will be smaller *and* sound better than 8 bit 22.05k.

"Is there anything in the OSX world?????" Itunes, Barbabatch, Peak, ProTools (just import the files in a temp sesssion and "export selected as files" to the desired resolution) "Why not just convert them to MP3? They will be smaller *and* sound better than 8 bit 22.05k." There are many industries that relay on lo-res PCM. I am in the children's "edu-tainment" industry and we generate 8bit, 8k mono wavs all the tiime. Hope this helps. Curtis

They're using a program called Director for which I know nothing about. I mentioned the mp3 thing right at the beginning. You're right: Compared to mp3, 8bit/22.05KHz takes up more space but at least it sounds worse! f-erenc szabo, smarty pants Z+E+R+O+B+E+A+T "NOW POWERED BY THE MIRACLE OF THE TRANSISTOR!" <http://home.goodmedia.com/~zerobeat>
