[QUOTE="netizen, post: 112758"] Not something I expect you specifically to answer sellenoff: If the audio is being compressed, and mixed down to a single channel for mobile couldn't there be some additional audio pre-production being done? Things like removing as much of the overlapping frequencies as possible to allow for the samples to play cleaner/clearer with limited artifacting etc, and pre compression and limiting before the actual mp3/ogg compression and change in the sample rate. With the right application of multi-band compressors and eq work ahead of time, knowing what the compression algorithims will do to the audio file there can be attempts made to get the best possible product. Admittedly this is where it gets into that esoteric aural ground, like the Apple AAC [URL="http://arstechnica.com/apple/2012/02/mastered-for-itunes-how-audio-engineers-tweak-tunes-for-the-ipod-age/"]mastering for iPod[/URL] sort of discussion that is beginning to happen more and more.
