Guest perri kaye Posted April 29, 2018 Posted April 29, 2018 hi im a record collector but I also have wavs which I need for certain gigs. im struggling to download a lot of tune wav versions. does anybody know where I could buy that isn't from Juno or Beatport??
Thinksmart Posted April 29, 2018 Posted April 29, 2018 Not really many download sources, certainly not in wave format. Buy CDs with the tracks on and rip to WAV format. Mediamonkey is good for that.

Chalky Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Why do you need wave files? Surely if playing a digital format mp3 will suffice?
Mal C Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) Wav's are going to kill your disc space mate, good quality MP3 should do it as Chalky says, keep the bit rate up, don't compress them and they will sound fine I'm sure.. For ages I recorded allot of my original 45's as Wavs, still got allot if your interested, or I have their MP3 counterparts if you have stuff to swap? any Genre, decade, But I'm not really into Funk much... lols Mal Edited April 30, 2018 by Mal C
Only Dreaming Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 I've been archiving a lot of my original in .flac format for years now. I save most of my 60's tracks in mono and it works out about 3mb per minute, which I can live with. Not too bothered about disc space used as memory is pretty cheap these days, and my phone has a 128Gb card installed. Dave
Thinksmart Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 FLAC is perfect digital format for backing up muaic no.loss of quality and reasonable file size. MP3 at ,320kbs 44.1khz is great as portable source. 1
