Subject:MPG3 vs. .WAV // Spectrum Analy. // Archiving

Hello everyone,


1>I've just started using SF 4.5b and have upgraded to SF 4.5c
via the INTERNET. I want to use MPEG3 under save as but noticed that
I have to pay 19.95 to use it. Is this normal or is it
because I upgraded to SF 4.5c? Any work arounds? If I reloaded the
original program would I be able to use it.. Does anyone know the
difference in size on a 10MB file if save in MPEG3 vs. .WAV?

2>Does anyone know of any practical applications
manual/video for using SF? Especially focusing on Spectrum
Analyzing , Normalizing , Mastering etc.

3>Any tips on archiving files from previous projects..ie.
when to save / when to erase...

Thanks

Don't know about a 10 Meg file, but I get about 90% compression (50
Meg to 5 Meg) on my songs using the 128-bit codec.
