Disharmony makes my mp3s sound like shit Topic

I didn't have this problem on Windows XP but ever since I moved the project to Windows 7 a huge portion of my mp3 files sound like absolute ass in rm2k. I've tested the offending files in winamp and they sound okay but as soon as rm2k attempts it it just sounds muffled and terrible.

For some reason though there are some mp3s that sound great, I've tried comparing a good mp3 vs bad mp3 by checking bit rates and stuff but they're practically identical. That and the fact that if I load up the very same project on my XP computer it all sounds fine.

I know disharmony isn't being worked on anymore so is there possibly another mp3 patch for rm2k that might have better compatibility with windows 7?

Hi golbez,

How does the sound quality degrade? Although at first glance this problem sounds out of reach, it might help to understand what is going on. For example, an mp3 that sounds kind of scratchy and intermittent might be repeatedly loading in and out very fast.

Are there any differences except the operating system?
Did you try updating sound drivers and stuff like that?
Do you use the same speakers/headphones for both?
