MP3 vs. WAV
Aug 17, 2012
Hi I have reviewed the current posts but would appreciate inputs on this prespective.
I have been asked to create a presentation with one hour of voice edited over 60 slides - wresulting in some potentially very large voice files. This presentation will be distributed over a range of bandwidths so I want to keep the published file size as low as possible.
I am using a professional voice studio.
I can request the 'best' - WAV 44khz 16 bit BUT, can I get away with a high quality Flash compatible MP3 - primarily to keep the published file size as low as possible?
I will not be editing the files or converting them back and forth between mp3/wav. I read that more people are using mp3 - what's the risk if I can request quality Flash compatible mp3's?
Thanks everyone.

If you use mp3 make sure your kps is at 196. The important thing is when you publish the audio defaults to 24 kps, go to custom and set it for 48 kps. It will be fine. Having said that I always use wav because its getting recompressed anyway.
