It appears that Wave Editor is a Mac only deal. I too am quite the novice at the upsampling thing. You might want to post a question on this forum to get a better idea on good PC upsamplers...I just don't know.

What I do is that I is import a particular song (AIFF from my iTunes library) and upsample it to 32 bit 96khz. I then export it as a FLAC file and as a AIFF file to eventually replace the standard AIFF file for that song in iTunes. Then I use Toast Platinum 10 to burn it to a DVD. Once there you do have to use those menus. Toast does it very oddly. It breaks up the music and you can either pick the songs or choose shuffle but using shuffle it'll only play those songs in that grouping that it chose. I haven't taken the time to see if I can burn it in such a way as to make it work like a standard audio CD would.

A quick word on the quality of hi-rez sound. I can only speak in regards to my system (you can see what I have in the inmates systems section) but don't expect any kind of transformation of sound. It is a subtle but nice improvement. Every bit as detailed but the various sounds are more rounded, fuller w/ a touch of sweetness. Regular true 24/96 music sounds virtually identical to the CD version...I don't understand this at all.

Good luck.
