Top man! Will look into them.

I had a Urika moment this morning. Decided to mixdown the audio in Cubase to WMA because it says that you don't lose anything in the quality of the audio after it compresses the file. Mixed it down and compared it to the original track in Cubase and bingo there's no difference between the WMA and original Cubase audio (even though the file size is only about 12mb compared to the 50mb size that the wav file is after Cubase converstion). Still seems strange that a smaller file size sounds twice as good as one more than 4 times it's size. There's got to be a logical explaination for that. Does anyone know the reason why or am I missing something fundemental?

Now my next problem is converting from WMA to wav or MP3
