The best "delossifier" I know of is to start with a proper wave file 96/88/44khz @ 32bF/24b/16b and use a LOSSLESS codec like FLAC. With all this jabber about optimizers and tons of strings of useless code, the end result is STILL A LOSSY RESULTANT FILE WITH THE SAME ARTIFACTING GARBAGE AS ANY MP3 (or other lossy codec). Sure you can minimize the artifacts, but it's still a crappy end result IMO... Until a new phenom codec is invented that compresses like MP3 (or better) but retains all the audio information (lossless) with no artifacts I will continue using FLAC. The extra space IMO, is a better compromise than having to listen to shitty MP3 encodes..

 

yep, to the trash it goes

 

Yea I tried it and saw the same thing

 

last minute - new colab dropped

:^)

Spoiler

^made by same user that made FFmpeg

 

Merry Christmass to all.

A plausible delossification can be somewhat performed (read approximated) only by exploiting neural networks...

...that's why "someone" are still waiting for the next - Intel - OpenVINO™ AI Plugins for Audacity !
