I currently have the lastest version of the Foobar Encoder Pack installed, so if I were to replace the existing Opus encoder with the latest alpha, should I be able to use the existing preset Opus settings in Foobar Converter? Also, as an aside question, is there any particular reason why the Opus codec is set to 128k by default in the the Foobar Converter presets? Thanks. EDIT: Apologies for the somewhat unclear title.
