Funnily enough, that's what I thought, but Stuffit reduced the total
size of the files from 577mb to around 268mb (though apparently
corrupting them in the process). The compress function in Rev did just
as well, and seems not no have corrupted anything. Filetypes was the
problem, and thanks
These lossy formats aren't appropriate in this case - this group of
files are the multitrack master for a record, and no loss is
acceptable, since the files will be mixed together to produce another
file, which in turn will likely be subjected to lossy compression, and
so on...
Cheers,
Mark
