Smacker can convert a 22 Khz file up to a 44 Khz file, but it can't make it magically sound any better. This is commonly used with RAW sound files that have no header information that Smacker could otherwise use to identify the sound files. Smacker can still use your sound if it isn't in one of these file types, but you'll just have to specify exactly what the format is. The higher the playback rate, the better the quality. However, the higher the playback rate, the faster your machine has to be to handle all the sound data.
Sound quality is the resolution at which the sound data was captured.
Smacker supports both types of sound quality. If you have a question that is not answered by our online help, just drop our technical support staff an e-mail, and we'll get it taken care of.
