iTunes>Logic Pro
I've noticed this several times, but I had always thought the distortion problem I was hearing had something to do with the transfer from AIFF to MP3 and so sort of disregarded it. But now I've just completed a new song in Logic and once again noticed a distortion when I played the MP3 in iTunes so I did a more extensive listen.
For test purposes I listened on two sets of headphones and also on two sets of speakers and it was apparent on all of them.
I first listened to it the with the those devices in Logic Pro and didn't hear it so I went ahead converted that into MP3 and listened in iTunes and heard it plainly. So then I listened to it while still an AIFF file also in iTunes and heard it yet again.
At first I had thought it might have something to do not only with some compression done when transferring from AIFF to MP3, but now that doesn't seem to be the case.
I used to do the conversion in iTunes, but was warned about that. So now I do it in Logic-which I was led to believe would get rid of the problem, but obviously it hasn't.
If the distortion is only within iTunes another player would test this theory out, but I don't now have any other player.
Before I do that does anyone have any insight into this?
