Subject: Re: 1. MP3 or AAC mixing in compressed/coded domain (2) From: Yadong Wang <ydwang@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2009 01:49:01 -0500 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>thanks for all the answers. I am asking about mixing directly in compressed format. some reasons to pursue that: 2. it's take too long to re-encode mp3 file after mixing in pcm format, which is unacceptable for some real-time (or close to real-time) application. 1. each time you uncompress edit and re-compress, you loose audio quality. thanks.
