converting .aif files

[Noel Buckner]

I have a dozen cds full of small .aif files (all made by a friend) and would like to convert them to .wav files. dMC will convert about 20% and the rest produce an error message like: "The CODEC required to decompress 'C:\Converted Music\waterfall.aif' could not be opened." Any explanation?

I am sure Daren can answer better, but I think there are different compressed formats for aif, so only the basic aif format is supported in dMc.

.aif problems

If not dMC then what?

Hi,

Right on the money Spoon. There are compressed versions of
AIFF files and my codec will only do the linear versions.

If you've got a Mac you could try Soundhack (www.soundhack.com).

In the Windows domain you could use the Windows version
of Quicktime player and record the output using dBPowerAMP
auxilliary input.

Hope this helps,
Daren.
