Good evening.
I use Lame MP3 encoder which seems to capture good fidelity. Is there an MP3
codec that produces higher audio fidelity?

One thing I'll add to this. if it's speach, go 64k mono, not stereo.
when you take a file, and make it stereo, you have to put twice as much
data into the same size file, guess what gets crunched? that's right,
quality. for a drastic sample of this effect, ri9p a file at 24k mono,
and then at 24k stereo.
Pet pieve, people who rip books at 64k stereo. Plus, not all encoders are
equil.

Hi,
for speech I would suggest 44.1 and 64 kbps. If it is a performance,
sound
seeing tour, or historical event I would consider either 96 or 128 for
speech only. This does not apply to the earlier posts on music and cd
quality.

Hi,
I have no idea where you pulled this info, but a cd is not 128kbps.
that's
the min you'd want to use, but I'd suggest 192kbps. If you want lossless
i.e. cd sounding recordings, use flac.

if you want to make decent recordings, your sample rate should be 44.1
for
cd quality and your bit rate or the rate that data is processed per
second
should be at 128 kbps or killabites per second.
that's the quality of most cd recordings.

Here's an interesting question. I've experimented with a lot of
different
bit rates and sample rates doing voice recordings but still don't know
what combination of the two give good enough quality for speech. I know
you need higher rates for music, at least 128KBPS. I'm only talking
about
voice recordings using a mic at this point. What combination of bit and
sample rate will take the least space and give me fair quality speech
audio. What should be higher. The bit rate, or the sample rate. I'm
talking about MP 3 files. I'd like to get a better understanding of
this.
Thanks in advance. Joe.
