Hello list,
My googling did not provide me with sufficient answers, so I'm directing
my questions here ;-)
I made a 1 hour long project in Ardour that exports as a 635 MB wav-file.
From Ardour the same project exports as a 566 MB FLAC file. However, if
instead I use SoundConverter to convert the WAV to FLAC, the resulting
file is 269 MB.
Since both are FLAC I'd expect them to yield the same playback (though
after finding a report at hificritic [1], I wonder...)
Is there a way to check if those FLAC files are indeed 'audio identical'?
And, obviously - if the audio quality is indeed the same - I much prefer
the smaller file. How can I tell Ardour to compress better?
Thankful for any and all input,
Al F
