A wav file which I cannot convert to mp3

Audacity did the trick.

it's not at all clear to me why you would want to convert it anyway. the original file is smaller than the resulting mp3.

Player compatibility?

An MP3 file can be made to be smaller than this source file. I used foobar 2000 v.0.9.4.2 beta 2 and LAME 3.97r for these:

--noreplaygain --preset 40 -m m --resample 24 --lowpass 11
[attachment=2729:attachment]
--noreplaygain --abr 24 -m m --resample 16 --lowpass 8
[attachment=2730:attachment]
--noreplaygain -m m --resample 16
[attachment=2731:attachment]

The first file has the best audio quality of these three (the command line is my usual speech setting for LAME MP3).

Alex B,
There is an Audio Identifier's screenshot:



To me it is necessary LAME 3.97r.
Whether you have it?

The file has 9 channels, which may be the problem.
lossyWAV -q X -a 4 -s h -A --feedback 2 --limit 15848 --scale 0.5 | FLAC -5 -e -p -b 512 -P=4096 -S- (having set foobar to output 24-bit PCM; scaling by 0.5 gives the ANS headroom to work)

Ok, if it has 9 channels, that could be a problem. Maybe "audacity" or some other audio editor may help.

khajah,

9 channels!  Are you trolling?

Anyway, here you go: (attachments)


EDIT

Adobe Audition thinks that the 9 channels are as follows:
front left, front right, center, LFE, left surround, right surround, back center, side left & side right.

Would you mind explaining where did you get such a file and what you would like to do with it.
