JamJuice1 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Hi everyone! This is a strange one and is of real concern to me. It's regarding mp3s and distortion. If I bounce a track from Logic to an MP3 and play with VLC I have no issues. If I bounce out AIFF or WAV and use a converter app like XLD or Mediahuman to convert to MP3 and then play with VLC I get some popping, distorted clicking sounds. Even more odd, is if I play the mp3 that was converter by a 3rd party app using preview / space bar it seems to play fine. I had this issue before so I completely formatted and reinstalled OSX and Logic but that hasn't made a difference. I'm concerned because I want to know there is no issues with the MP3s before I send them out to clients. If anyone has any help to offer and I would be eternally grateful!!! Thank you! Jam.

JamJuice1 Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 I should add, this problem started a few months ago and before that I've had years with no issues like this. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherking Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 why use vlc for audio? check out VOX, for example, a simple, free music player. also, check the volume level on vlc (if you insist on using it for playback); if it's over 100%, it distorts pretty quickly...
