Audio Compressor*I need one*

*Spitfire* · 09-19-2006, 09:07 AM

For all you tech guys out there I need a good audio compressor. I have some songs that are 10 Megs and that is just outrageous. Their the same length as other songs yet twice as big in file size. Which means I have to give up space for 2 to 3 CDs just for one on my MP3 player.

Anyone know of a good audio compressor? I have a Sandisk so it uses standard MP3 files nothing fancy.

If you're ripping these songs from CD's, then I would suggest dropping the encode down to at least 192kb/s. 128kb/s is fine for most people, but if you appreciate pure and untainted sound, it would be wise to keep it to at least 192kb/s. Do a search on Google for an audio compressor if you're using mp3 files downloaded from the internet. monkey's is a good one, I would suggest that one.
