Just realised that I didn't actually say what to change in the gstreamer 
pipeline :)

For vorbis there will be a section of the pipeline something like: "vorbisenc 
name=enc quality=0.5". The quality option is what you want to change there. 
Higher numbers give better quality, but also bigger file sizes. 

For mp3 there will be a pipeline stage similar to: "lame name=enc mode=0 vbr-
quality=6" I'd recommend sticking with the vbr-quality option and using 
variable bit rate [1]. Here the numbers are from 0 to 9 with 0 being the best 
quality and 9 being the worst.  

If you want any other info about the options available for these (or any 
other) gstreamer plugins you can use the gst-inspect command in a terminal, 
e.g. "gst-inspect lame" gives details about the lame plugin for mp3 encoding. 


[1] if you want constant bit rate swap the vbr-quality=x option for 
bitrate=xxx
