Hope someone can give me some guidance on this!
I have some old recordings on CD which were copied straight from DAT without ever being mastered. This was done 20 years ago on a CD recorder and although I have all these recordings on MP3 I would like to actually master some of them properly.
I know MP3 files are compressed and not suitable for mastering, but would it be possible to save the uncompressed CD song files and master them instead of the MP3s? I no longer have the old DATs unfortunately so would the CD files be as good a quality and as uncompressed as DAT if recorded at 44.1?
Many thanks,
Wakes.
