did you change much in that hearing treshold? I get many 32kbit frames
now ...

I don't know if it's valuable, but i ran some tests on the "-Z"
setting:

- The size dramaticly drops compared to 3.83 (but that was the meaning
I guess :))

- The speed also drops on my cpu, but I don't care too much

- The extra quality brought by the 16-22kHz VBR fix by MT is
still there.

Check out (3.70 VS 3.83 VS 3.84a-Z):

- imho, it's still a bit too agressive on my

track. ("Ki" from "kingdom" sounds too sharp and also the 3 long cymbals in
