Click Edit, then preferences, , then advanced, then importing, then on import using you can set on WAV encoder.
I use Traders Litlle Helper and then burn discs using this method, also make sure and set for no gaps between songs.

If you get sent wav files on CD and want to make CD copies there is absolutely no need to convert them to MP3s and then back to wavs.There are plenty of programmes (such as EAC) that will just let you rip the files and then reburn them directly as wavs.
The trading community strongly discourages (to say the least) converting wavs or flacs to MP3 and then converting back to wav and other formats. Why? Because people have gone to all the trouble to unearth and prepare digital copies of all these shows and to distribute them so that every copy is the same quality as the original (using lossless formats such as wav or flac). If you convert these to MP3s for your ipod that is fine, but there will be some loss of quality. If you then covert them back to wav (or flac) you lose even more quality. If you then trade those copies you are putting inferior quality versions of shows back into circulation. Having finally got the means to avoid the loss of quality across generations, we should all try to use it. Indeed the trading community also tries to discourage seeding shows saved as wavs. Ideally all trading would be from flac to flac.
Similarly if you receive flacs you can either
-copy the flacs to your hdd and play them using programme like foobar2000
-Convert them to wavs using traders little helper and then burn them onto CDs
-Convert them to MP3s for use on ipods etc....but these should not be traded. It is best to keep a copy of the flacs to use for trading and as a back up. Then if you lose any shows you have an original quality back up standing by.

Is because when I get an audio CD vine, the easiest thing to do is rip it to iTunes. But you know, it then is converted to mp3. So I was wondering if folks then go through the hassle to convert back to wav when you want to burn yourself a CD? I actually do not like iTunes' CD burner so I use a different program. Anyways just thought I'd see what you all do out there in vine land....

It said that it gave errors but it looks (sounds) like it worked to me?? I always wondered what the difference was between burning wav vs mp3 onto a CD?? I was under the impression that wav sounded better than mp3 (on a CD anyways)... but I am really not hearing a difference..

Have you try`d traders little helper ? I know I can convert wav to mp3 , that fits an entire show on one disc that way .
Any recommendations for MP3 to WAV conversion software??

I don`t trade mp3 , just use it for my own personal . I prefer to store everything in shn/flac.(if it comes that way)
plus shn/flac takes up less space on the old hard drive .
Thank you for the imfo CB . Thank you too Hal .
