Re: Upconverting AAC files

It's like once you compress you're stuck.
PREZACTALLY!

Once the compression is done. You can never recover the final rendition to its original pristine sound.

Hate to be the "bearer of sad news", but you just described the situation perfectly.

So then in theory you could never go higher than CD quality audio which is what 128kbps wav format... i think??

So for example you cannot rip a CD at 256kbps and hear any difference because the source is still encoded at 128kbps?

Am I correct or is there a way to repair the damage done during compression and guess at the missing information to bring it back up to full quality. I know this can be done with photos.

No "theory". That's exactly right!

You can re-encode a 128 bitrate tune @ a higher encoded bitrate, however it can't be higher quality sound, than the original 128 bitrate sound...you do in fact understand.
