For my HD3, i want to convert some of my tracks to 256kb ATRAC format. But how is that possible, i dont have them on CD so i cant rip them to ATRAC format, and they are currently in MP3 format 48kbs is the only conversion possible through sonicstage.

Is there any way to convert them from MP3 format to 256kbs ATRAC format, using any plugin/program?

thanks

If your HD3 plays mp3s, why do you want to convert them to Atrac?

 

[Sphinx89]

To use some sound setting you cant use otherwise, like virtual surround, and also for better quality

no matters i found out now anyway

48kbps mp3's into atrac for better quality??
Sorry, I don't understand.

 

[Sphinx89]

no, 128kbs MP3s, into 256 kbs ATRAC 3 format

 

[Michael1980]

Still the quality is not going to get any better is it...

 

[Rumz]

yeah... well, IMO those DSP (virtual surround or whatever) aren't worth the tradeoff in sound quality you get from transcoding to atrac, but... to each his own!

SS can convert them to other formats also: tools -> options -> transfer -> transfer mode -> choose your device, click set transfer mode. Or left click your file and choose convert format.
