audio file size

42967-filesize.gif

the original file is mp3, stereo, 96kbps. and file size is 336kb.
but after importing to unity, it turns into bigger size.

as shown in the image, when i choose the compression size 156kbps, new file size turn into 1.1mb.

and when i choose 96kbps, new file size become double the size of original.

i’m curious why the size become bigger than origianl after importing.

If Unity converted your file, then the file type change would explain the change in the file size.
