In CyberPower Audio Editing Lab, most formats you can save to have settings
dialogs where you can configure the options for a particular format. This
dialog is only viewable after you go to File menu -> Save As, and then specify
your output format. The following sections detail the contents of the various
settings dialogs available in CyberPower Audio Editing Lab.
WAV format
There are basically 2 ways that the software will create WAVE files.
CD Quality
This is the most popular setting. If you are creating WAV files so that
you can burn them on custom CD compilations, choose this option. It will
ensure that any non-CD quality format WAVs and MP3 files are converted to
CD quality compatible WAV files. CD quality format WAV files are 44,100
Hz, 16 bits, stereo.
Specific Settings
Choose
this if you want the WAV files in a specific format. The last alternative
can be used for special situations where you need all your resultant WAV
files to be in a specific format. For example, you can use this if you need
all your WAV files to be mono.
MP3 format
Preset Quality
The
easiest way of choosing a level of compression for your MP3 files is to
use the Preset Quality slider.
The Preset Quality slider allows
you to choose from several levels of quality and resultant file sizes. As
you choose higher quality, the file size goes up as well. On the other hand,
lower quality presets will be smaller and easier to send over the Internet.
