Hello Chris; Lynne again. The problem with converting an already compressed audio file to another compressed format is the loss of quality which occurs when you do. However, please don't go out of your way. Gordon says he has other plans which will make the format unimportant. We know that you're not looking at top quality audio in an audio file of this nature anyway, so please don't worry about that. If you could send us DropBox links, (of list is probably better), that would be great.
many thanks. Lynne On 14 Jan 2013, at 20:03, chris h (sky) <[email protected]> wrote: Hello Gordon. Well I can always convert them using programs like GoldWave or Amadeus if it can do that so don't worry about that.
