Question

Can no longer encode MP3s with 44kHz sample rate in AME v23.1

In earlier versions, we were able to change the MP3 sample rate from 48kHz to 44 by changing the Codec Quality in the Basic Audio Settings from Fast to High, but that setting is now missing in the latest version. Would it be possible to bring it back?

 

This is a needed feature for us since we use audio for Adobe Animate which does not like importing 48kHz files.

 

Downgrading to v23.0.1 brings it back on a PC, but not on a Mac. We'd prefer to not have to stay with 23.0.1 forever. As a workaround, we can change to 44kHz on the WAV preset, then convert to MP3, but we'd rather not have to add an extra step and extra files. Thanks!

Noticed that, too. I've been using Audition as a workaround. Not ideal but the option is still there.

jeremy,

 

I see the Fast/High option in PR/AME 2021. It is not there in 23.1.

 

Edit: forgot to say - Win10.

I also verified older AME builds on Mac, and actually did not see any options for sample rate in any build.

Thank you for your response. It seems updating to 23.1 on a Mac somehow removes that option on all previous versions, even after deleting the preferences folder. I imagine a clean install on a newly wiped machine would bring it back, but again, that's not a long-term solution.

 

Any chance the Adobe engineers can resurrect this ability in a future update?
