Actually, LAME is widely considered to be the best MP3 encoer available.
It's possible, though, that you don't have the latest one. THis is very
likely for CDex, considering developement on teh project stopped rather a
while ago. I'd replace the lame.enc dll file in teh CDex folder with the one
from the most recommended version. You can find it at

I'll try again to make some decent MP3s for playing on my BrailleNote,
because I want more of my collection on my BrailleNote than I currently
have.
I have CDex and lame MP3 encoder, but it works badly and makes far less than
perfect MP3s. I expect non-free encoders for making MP3s make better ones,
because MP3s I've had downloaded for me usually sounded better and bit rate
was not the reason.
I have to admit that i didn't try those MP3s I made that sounded bad on my
Braille note, so it might be possible that my MP3 player just doesn't do
well with LAME compressed MP3s. that certainly is a known problem with
using different encoders and decoders, sometimes they don't like each other.
It's just that until now I didn't need MP3s because all my other stuff was
happy with other formats, but then they ar far less convenient, controlable,
and with me than my BrailleNote, and I hate to waste such a nice feature now
that i have it. :-)
