there is no problem recording dialog with mp-3 in 320 , i bearelly know
people who will ever rcognize it , never tried it with the sd but
certanly did allot with hdv cameras that some of them sounds even better
then i thought ( jvc)
Yes, Oleg, it is possibly adequate for dialog. But lossy compression
techniques like typical low-rate MP3 are *designed* to throw away
the kinds of low-level "noise" like room tone. So the symptoms the
OP is describing sound like the MP3 compression is doing its job.

Greetings fellow 744t owners.
Whenever I record roomtone on mp3/320kb/s 16 bit - the room tone
sounds like water flowing at a different rate.
Main audio portion like speech sounds fine except when there is
silence, it gets worse when I change the rate to 256kb/s or 192kb/s
and so on. Is this normal?
Sounds normal for MP3 (at least to me). Has nothing to
do with the hardware, but with the compression format.
Setup is : Um 400a to Lectro 411a to 442 out to 744t.
No issues in sound quality when recording to flac / wav mono or wav poly
in 16 bit or 24 bit 48k.
Thank you in advance for any input on this.
MP3 is a lossy compressed format and is considered unsuitable for
professional production. It was intended
for casual listening to pop muisic. (IMHO :-)
WAV is uncompressed, and FLAC is a form of lossless compression. They
are both suitable for production.
