Exporting Files

[frozenbread1]

I was watching Michael's interview with Steve Barden.
Steve says he mixes 2 versions one at 320Khz and the other at 192Khz.
Can someone explain that to me?

I am not sure what Steve would say, but this is my take:

for library and TAXI pitches where they spec'd 192 kHz - there you are.

For other pitches where they accept higher bit rate mp3's - 320 kb/s is as high as you can go.

Going on the theory that 320 sounds a bit more hi-fi than 192.

You might as well do it all at once

Thanks. It's good to know. I haven't submitted anything yet. And I'm glad I haven't because I'd have exported it wrong.

When you submit through Taxi, your hosting account has a file size limit; 192kb/sec MP3 audio is the recommended bit rate, but you can upload higher-resolution MP3s as long as they don't exceed the file size limit.

Thanks Mojobone. That's cleared up my confusion

As with many streaming sites, the audio you hear over the web is 128kb/s or thereabouts, but the screeners hear your audio in the resolution/format you uploaded. HTH

320 is the new 192.
