No, when you convert a low quality format to .wav, special algorithms in most new converters upscale it and replace the missing frequencies. FACT

So, these "new converters" make up/imagine/pulls out of their asses these missing frequencies? How can they produce what's not there in the first place.

Digital mate I dunno, I guess it's like how data is just 0 and 1 but if the signal is broke it knows what comes next, kind of like the healing brush in photoshop but with audio.

This guy be trollin'

It is (mathematically) possible to "fill in" missing frequency information from data though I don't know of any converters that do this. Perhaps all of them do?

See, Shum knows.

Nah man, you can only fill missing frequencies if the file has been converted from a wav. So convert your wav to a 128kbps mp3, save that mp3, and then you can convert the mp3 to whatever you want, flac, wav, aac....


I thought that was common knowledge.

See if you import the (left) shitty quality into illustrator you can convert it to that nice (right) clean quality vector file then back out to a high quality bitmap. Same can be done for audio. People said we could never change pitch without affecting the speed of an audio sample, those people now have egg on their chin stroking faces.

Look up "Quantum Audio Encoding". It's this new technique that uses entanglement between bits to make sure new added bits aren't in a superposition.
