Conversion Notes
Audio conversion from SW to ALAW re-encodes at the highest quality setting appropriate for the target format. Lossless-to-lossy conversion (e.g., FLAC to MP3) is a one-way process — converting back to lossless does not recover the discarded information. Metadata tags (title, artist, album, track number) are mapped to the closest equivalent fields in the target format.
