Howdy,  The understanding of bitrates in max requires a little bit of 
imagination.  Visualize a dial with a big arrow painted on it.  Around the dial 
are numbers.  The numbers don't move, only the dial and the arrow move.  When 
the arrow is pointing at one of the numbers, that's where the setting is.

to convert this to something that makes sense, you need to either try a few 
samples to see how they come out, or talk to some one who  already did... Like 
me.

Now then.  I can tell you that 46.2 equals 96 kbps, 53.8 equals 112 kbps, 61.5 
equals 128 kbps, 69.2 equals 160 kbps...  I think that 76.9 equals 192, 84.6 
equals 224, 92.3 equals 256, and 100 definitely equals 320.  I had my encoder 
set for audiobooks, so I'm sketchy on the 192 and 224 settings, but it makes 
sense.

Hope this helps,
