I am firmly convinced that when I upgrade my computer, I'm going to get
an AMD processor. I'm utterly sick of Intel's crap.
As for specifying mp3 quality in CoolEdit 2000:
In the save dialog you choose "MPEG 3 (FhG) (*.mp3)" in the "Save as
type" drop down box. (But you already knew that, didn't you.) Then
click on the "Options..." button to bring up the various compression
choices. Towards the bottom, there is a slider with the labels "Faster"
on the left and "Higher Quality" on the right. Play around with that.
There's also a little Explanation box with some info.
I find that 160 kb/s at quality 3 is a good balance of quality and
encoding speed. But that's just my personal preference.
And while I'm blathering on, I'll just say I love CoolEdit 2000 for 2
main reasons: 1. I can assign keyboard shortcuts to ANY function.
That really speeds up editing. and 2. The batch processing is really
good.
