Dear programmers :)
I use MP3 for encoding borrowed CD's for a legal low-power FM radio station in New
Zealand. To save money I am not using a frequency limiter/sound compressor and I'm
allowed to use 16khz rather than the usual 15khz cut-off. I'm using Winamp & plug-ins
for the compression and relying on the Xing encoder switch to filter out all
frequencies over 16khz.
I would rather use a better encoder and Lame is heading to be the best. Could one of
you kind programmers please consider a new switch (say -K or -k-) to permanently turn
on the existing low-pass filter. As I said, Xing has this option, and for FM radio
which doesn't need the higher frequencies, it would leave more bandwidth for better
quality encoding.
Greg tells me that using VBR with -V5 or higher setting turns on the filter but I
would prefer to use -V4.
Thanks for your consideration,
Ross.
