What would you use to encode that? I can't do it out of foosbar unless I am missing something?

Foobar has a built-in encoding engine, but you will need to download the FLAC or LAME MP3 converters if you want to use them. All you have to do is right-click on the file/album within the Foobar media library and select the convert option.
 
The second tab in the convert dialog will allow you to select the DSPs used during conversion. You will need to select and configure the "Resampler (PPSH)" to convert the sampling rate to 44100hz (also enable Ultra mode for better quality).
 
The third tab will allow you to change the sample bit depth. If encoding to FLAC, change "convert lossless formats to" to 16-bit. If encoding to MP3, change "convert lossy and other formats to" 16-bit.

If you want to use for portable on-go, isnt 320kbps MP3 good enough? That can be done on foobar.

Yea I am using 320 kbps mp3s. Its good enough but I want flac anyways just for the sake of it. And thanks chronomitch I got it working now.

My discs have finally arrived.  The tracks are engaging with good sound quality but not up there with the quality of Final Fantasy XIII.  Don't get me wrong, they are worth the money.
