I've found that mp3s of songs with vocals sometimes do not transfer over to
MiniDisc well (analog), especially 128k files. Although it is partially
dependant on the EQ settings on my home stereo, even if I drop the bass down
and boost other parts up, with some songs the vocals are kind of muddled and
hard to hear amongst the music. On other songs at 128, some of the higher
stuff is muffled, or "combed" or really sharp. Fortunately, I record a lot
of instrumentals which seem to pick up better than vocals.
No complaints on a digital CD copy yet.
