I always use max for converting flac-to-aif but there is problem I think. My flac files' bitrate changes after converting procedure, I meant oversampling or what etc.
For instance 05 - Consortium Vocale & Alexander Schweitzer - Gregorian Chant Crux Fidelis, from 2L records, its bitrate 2305 kbps, after converting its bitrate 4608 kbps PCM.. ?!
iTunes setup is automatic, what is going on also ?
