Hello,
I am trying to convert vinyl to CD. I am using
Audacity for recording,
and am planning to use GWC (thanks for pointing me
to it!) for
processing.
I have to "digitize" sound at 48k. There seems to be
obvious distortion
at 44k1. This is probably because Intel ICH5 only
uses 48k internally.
So I need to convert the sample rate to 44k1
separately. And to keep the
quality high...
Question 1. How do I do the conversion? Can't find
it in Audacity. (I
did find the "High-quality sample rate converter"
settings in
Preferences, but how do I get to use this
converter?) Or perhaps there
is a tool better than Audacity for this purpose?
If bit rate and filetype conversion:
sndfile-convert -pcm16 infile.aiff outfile.wav
If sample rate:
sndfile-resample -to 44100 input.wav output.wav
Do read the man pages or 'sndfile-resample --help' or
'sndfile-whatever --help' so you'll see all the
options.

Question 2. Should I convert the rate before or
after "cleaning" the
sound in GWC?
Yours, Mikhail Ramendik
