220 is a high bit4rate but low compression while 32 is very high compression but low bitrate. Basically, the more you compress something the smaller it gets but you lose quality, and the lower the bitrate the more compressed it is and therefore will produce a smaller file. I'd go for 192 or 220 but that's just my preference.

Hi Steve - yes, this does make sense, but if you take a look under settings
in sound Taxi, they list the optional bit rates, saying that 32 is very low
compression, and 220 is very high; unless JFW isn't reading it correctly? -

| Hi Andy,
|

| Kevin -
|
| Yes, I can see how this might be. The problem I think is that if I choose
a
| higher bit rate from within the settings of Sound Taxi, the compression
rate
|
| is also increased. For example: It has a bit rate of 170, which is calls
| standard, then it goes up to 190 KBS which is says has a high compression
| rate, and then it goes to 220 KBS saying that is a very high compression
| rate. I was trying to get the best of all worlds, by not losing quality
from
|
| greater compression, and also not reducing the bit rate.
|
| Does that make sense? -

|| Hi Andy.
||
|| Variable bitrate will depend on what the upper and lower limits are.  If
|| your file was originally 192kbps and is now 155kbps, chances are that the
|| lower limit is 128kbps and the upper 192kbps.  Effectively, you've
reduced
|| the quality of your music but ended up with a smaller file size.
