hiya,
I have more than 2,000 files to convert to ccitt A law format for phone purpose.
I used SF batch converter but it brings a bit more noise than if i do it manually in sound forge. Maybe because of the non linear 16 bit to 8 bit compression. (I don't really know how it works to get ccitt a law file)

Can anyone please tell me if there is a software or script that converts thousands of files with a better sound at this format?

Much obliged,
Didier

What about Tools - Batch Convert?

If not, what process do you use to manually do it?

same thing as my issue regardings region removal.
I use SF 4.5 in-built batch converter to save my files as cctt a law.
Better sound (no hiss, no extra noise) than using Batch Converter 5.0.
maybe an issue regarding algorithm or something. I don't know much about this.
