Would you post the commands that you used with postfish, sox, and lame? I cannot get postfish to compile on my Athlon 64 running Fedora Core Linux 64 bit edition. I'll try compiling in Slackware 11 (32 bit i86 edition) and see if it works there.
What I'm trying to do is reduce it to a 22 kHz mono mp3 file like you did. I loaded the original file into Audacity so I could see it...it seems to have been recorded too loud and the peak sounds go off the chart. In lame I've been reducing the sound, encoding in mono at 22 kHz and 24 kbps with this: lame -m m -b 24 --resample 22.05 -f --scale-r -2 --mp3input original.mp3 compressed .mp3 Marty On Fri, 16 Mar 2 On Fri, 16 Mar 2007 18:48:00 -0400 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Having listened to your sample, aside from *alot* of clipping, that audio should reduce to 22kHz mono very nicely. It's a nice clear recording. I did a quick declip/channel merge with postfish, downsample with sox and encoded it with lame and it came out sounding fine-- at least as good as the 'good' sample you referenced. So... what are you actually doing? Don't spare the details. Are you encoding as a stereo 24kbpbs file by accident?
