Re: [MP3 ENCODER] 2MP3 from cassette at LAME 3.85(or whatever)
Hi I will try to answer your questions: >1. I want to know about "-k " key in preferences of LAME 3.85 >| This is key to OFF all filters it`ll better with him or not? You should not use this -k, because, with lower bitrates( that uses -k), there is not enough bits to encode a frame, so filters encode high frequencies ( mostly inaudible to our ears) more poorer, so then more bits are available for lower frequencies(which are audible very good for our ears). Using -k will make an mp3 quality more poorer. With higher frequencies there is enough bits for frames, so all frames are encoded equaly. >2. I want rip CD-music at 224 kbps - what a setting is bestest with it? >| (255-its so Big) -h, vbr-off, Stereo. Right ? the best settings with LAME would be "Lame -b224 -h -mj". I am not sure, but how much I know joint stereo is better than stereo for lame. >Above 192kbps is much better MPEG 1 or 2 Layer 2. MPEG-1 layer 3 files are best suited when creating files for higher bitrates (above 80 kbps). MPEG-2 files are best suited when creating files for lower bitrates (such as 32-80 kbps). so for bitrates higher than 80kbps you shoul use mpeg 1 layer 3. >3.

I am not 100% sure if at higher bitrates it is better to use joint stereo or stereo, because I use variable bitrate mode (VBR), with which joint stereo (-mj) is better to use. If you want good mp3 at good size use "lame -V 1 -b 128 -h -m j -q1". Better check out www.r3mix.net for information on encoding, ripping, settings and so on. Also don't forget to take newest lame beta versions at http://www.chat.ru/~dkutsanov/~index.htm. -- MP3 ENCODER mailing list ( http://geek.rcc.se/mp3encoder/ )
