Me? I ended up downloading “You Are the One” from a torrent. Even if you buy WAV files, Platinum Notes will improve them. We designed it to work with music from Beatport, iTunes and other stores. It corrects pitch, improves volume and makes every file ready to play anywhere - from your iTunes to a festival sound system.
However, when the product turns out to be faulty, my conscience is OK with getting a copy from alternative sources. If you’re going to venture down this path, though, make sure that you find one of those “audiophile” torrents with audio in the lossless FLAC format and the CD rip log. Platinum Notes uses studio filters to process your files. A CD is preferable since it will allow you to avoid an analog-to-digital conversion, but a vinyl record will work, too. All content will be automatically synced when switching from one device to another with iCloud enabled. Platinum Notes works as a batch-processing tool and it accepts MP3, WAV and AAC files as input, processes them, and encodes the output to pristine-quality MP3 or WAV files. You can try and hunt down the CD or vinyl on Discogs, and then rip that. MarginNote is available on Mac, iPad, and iPhone, and they all have almost the same features. Platinum Notes is a simple to use Mac app that will allow you to correct pitch, adjust volume, improve dynamics and make every file ready to be played anywhere from an iPod to a festival sound system.
So don’t hold your breath when you hear that software like Mixed in Key’s Platinum Notes can help you fix the clipping. New Wave stalwarts like Talking Heads and Devo found new grooves while transcendent artists like.
Attempting to recover that information is akin to trying to recover the full HD photo from a 100×100 JPEG thumbnail – it’s just impossible. Now, let’s be clear: Soft clipping like this means that parts of the track’s sound information are lost forever. The same overcompressed track in Audacity.
