[MP3 ENCODER] BladeEnc Binaries Off Line

[MP3 ENCODER] Increasing encoding quality by using doubles?

I tried to figure out a problem I had when encoding a T.O.P. track ("What is hip", a funk song recorded 1973 - so just analog effects on the track). When using ear phones I found some subtile flanging effects (there are very sharp attacks from the brass section and there is much bass and drums [h

I am in the process of the same. I read some interesting web pages where guys did all this experimentation...some of it quite scientific...and some of it very subjective. This is what I came down to in my own decision (as of now): 1 - 128bit CBR is *NOT* good enough. You'll get about 1MB/min

[MP3 ENCODER] mp3enc3.1 adds silence in live cd

2000-06-01 Thread Robert Meccia
this is just a little defect: in live recording cd, where there is no silence between tracks, mp3enc3.1 adds a little silence at the end of each .mp3: the pauses are noticeable even with winamp using the continuous output plugin! Is there an easy way to prevent this? EAC "compression offset" feat
