MC has a high quality conversion engine, that can be used to transcode from one format to another. To access this tool, select the file(s) you wish to convert the Right Click --> Library Tools --> Convert format to create a list source files. In the Convert Format window you can then: - Convert the files - View the "Details" of the files to be converted and also - Set the "Options" of the conversion. These options include the ability to "Apply DSP" so you have the ability to use all the features of the DSP engine such as Volume Levelling, Equalisation, Sample Rates, Bitdepths, and Channel Up/Down mixing as needed.
