Professional Tips

Always start from the highest-quality source: lossless to lossy, never lossy to lossy

For streaming, target -14 LUFS (Spotify) or -16 LUFS (podcasts) for consistent loudness

Sample rate and bit depth matter more than codec choice at equivalent bitrates

Preview converted audio before distribution to catch artifacts early
