List of MP3 sources on CD

I haven't yet had any issues running Adobe Audition 1.5 on my Windows 7 computer..... personally I'd go back to XP if I could, though.

The features in the later versions are indespenible to me.     
I'm already using Windows 8!

One thing to consider, guys, is that, at least for the
older tracks, the sources may not have been from mp3. The
tracks, or tapes they used, simply had a high-pass filter
applied to them to eliminate high frequency noise or
something.

That cannot be true on the "Percolator (Twist)" track that Todd Ireland
analyzed. When I saw it, it not only had frequencies above a certain point
shaved off, but it had all the hallmarks of a VARIABLE BITRATE MP3, similar
to LAME at, say, the V1 or V2 setting. What I saw (can't post it now, my
regular computer is on the blink), was a flat shave-off of frequencies at
about 16hz, then higher frequencies at certain points throughout the song.
When I get my regular PC working again, I'll post a photo.

Just discovered that my Ludacris "Stand Up" promo CD single (DEFR 15907-2) is lossy except for the instrumental:

1. Stand Up (Radio) (lossy source)
2. Stand Up (Instrumental) (lossless)
3. Stand Up (Call Out) (lossy)

That's a 2003 single, so they started this sort of thing pretty early.

In addition, my promo CD single of "Crank That" by Soulja Boy Tell 'Em AND my commercial import CD single of the same title are ALL from lossy sources. Have not been able to find the 45 version of "Crank That" in lossless format yet, since the album version segues in from the previous track. (Something that should probably be noted in the database.)
