Ey up!

How are you recording these? Are they from a real Amiga?
Cheers!

From my amiga to stereo in, recorded straight to mp3 and later edited with soundforge in most cases. Otherwise, WinUAE emu - recording to mp3.

You will have trouble hearing the difference between the mp3s and the real thing.

I hope at someone will like my efforts to have amiga music in modern Mp3 format........

Nearing 1500 downloads already, I think yes :)

Best of luck with the collection, it is a good idea for those that don't want the hassle of tracking down players, replayers and the actual modfiles. Of course, the overall collection size will be huge! ;-)

That sounds like you are encoding to MP3, then editing and then resaving as MP3. Are you aware that re-encoding an MP3 definitely reduces the quality?


Just wondering if you were also aware of...Image

They stream game music (not just Amiga) and use non-compressed music sourced from the real machines rather than emulation. If you can spare the time and bandwidth, perhaps you could get in contact with them and provide more Amiga soundtracks?
Cheers!
