sound quality from MP3 to lossless

[arko]

hey everyone!
i would like to know if there is any increase in the quality of the sound of a music file originally in the MP3 format, after the format is changed to a lossless format, e.g WMA lossless.
to put it another way, will changing the format from MP3 to WMA lossless enhance the sound quality?

I really doubt that. Because the data loss has already taken place while encoding to mp3. But I'm not sure. Lemme search a little

You will not gain anything. alib_i is correct. The sound loss has already taken place when you encoded it to MP3. So no use converting it to lossless.

alib_i is absolutely right.... As the data loss has already taken place, you cannot just have the lost part back...

The quality of the file once lost cannot be recovered.

also it will vastly depend on original .mpo3 bitrate..
