Yeah ... I was asking about sound quality. What you say makes perfect
sense. Darcy says that the coversion can take place in iTunes, so I
need to see how that is done ... then I'll give it a try.
Thanks,
Dean

When you make a WAV file, what you have is a CD-quality sound file,
filled with whatever sounds you put into it. In this case, playing
a WAV file created from a Finale file with GPO should sound exactly
like playing the source Finale file itself (inside Finale, with GPO).
When you convert a WAV to an MP3, some of the sound quality is
lost; this is how MP3s are able to be smaller than WAV files. The
lower the bitrate you choose for your conversion, the smaller the
file will be -- but the more quality is lost. You'll need to listen
to the files yourself to determine what level of tradeoff is
acceptable.
When you ask about 'GPO quality', are you literally asking about
the sound quality? If so, then your answer is above. Or are you
asking whether the file will still be based on GPO sounds or
whether somehow the sounds themselves will be different? If so,
then the answer is that the file will still be based on GPO sounds.
Aaron.
