Using Exact Audio Copy and LAME for high bit-rate encoding.
I have noticed a ‘metallic sheen’ to some of the music I’ve encoded in MP3 format. I’m aware of the ‘ringing’ phenomenon that can effect certain bit rates. Has anyone else come across this or is it a characteristic of the player?
Some people on this group have talked about using the various presets in LAME such as –extreme and so forth. When I try entering these parameters in the Exact Audio Copy app they don’t appear to work – can anyone put me right on this. As far as I know I’m using the correct version of LAME but by all means feel free to explain this to me in ‘Denzel Washington Mode’ (do a search through the posting to see what I mean by that!).
Is it worth using EAC to extract the CD music and then an alternative ‘front end’ to LAME to do the encoding? Any help would be appreciated. Specialically URL's for exactly what I'm looking for.
