Jekson Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Hi audiophiles! I've some concerns about decompressed and lossless conversions using XLD, MAX and some other software. So for example I have some hi-res FLAC audio files. If I convert them to AIFF, they will add in size as expected. But if after I will compress these new AIFF files back to FLAC the new output files will be significantly smaller than original ones. And if you'll continue this routine the decrease in size of original files also will occur. Depend on software you're using (I've tried XLD and MAX as a mac user, but I know that some win software exhibits same properties) the exact decrease in size will differ, but will occur anyway. So my question is how that happens and in this case don't these conversions really affect quality? Link to comment
Jekson Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 AIFF - FLAC - AIFF returns original AIFF output. Thanks Bystander Link to comment
