i need the help of you wonderful experts!, lame Options

[spicymeatball]

hello gents,

me and a few guys are starting a little rip circle, and being the big techie, i've been placed in charge of finding our standard lame switches. we're using Lame3.90.2-ICL EXE. i think that's the best lame version out there. we were using --alt -preset cbr 192, but it's joint stereo. we need full stereo. i'd love suggestions, especially if anyone knows which switches some ripping groups use, because their files always sound boss. this is my latest switch test, any thoughts?

-b 192 -h -m s --nspsytune --athtype 2 --lowpass 16 --ns-bass -8 --scale 0.93

not exatly sure if that's the best switch, it sounds pretty good.

thanks in advance for all your help!

I've recently started using --alt-preset 192. I am really starting to like the ABR mode. The predicibilty of the file size is nice.

I have found this setting to be a good compromise (for my ears) that allows me to use the output on portables & real stereo systems.

I have a portable with a few 64MB flash cards and 128MB flash cards. At this setting, most of my olders CD's will fit on the 64MB card, and for the new ones they all will fit on the 128MB card. One CD per card works for me.

The sound quality is good enough for my car MP3 player as well. Yep, I'm a new ABR convert.
