Frequently Asked Questions - Ultimate Encoder 2006
- I have installed the latest WINASPI driver, why Ultimate Encoder still not recognize my CD-ROM drive?
If you have a SCSI CD-ROM drive, try to use Ultimate Encoder on a IDE CD-ROM, some SCSI CD-ROM drives are not supported by Ultimate Encoder, due to command differences between each manufacturer.
If you have an IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM drive which is not recognized by Ultimate Encoder, the only choice is to use a different CD-ROM drive or use an alternative freeware cd grabber to read audio data from CD then encode the WAV files with Ultimate Encoder.
- Why Ultimate Encoder can't encode my WAV file?
Make sure that the WAV file you are trying to encode is a Windows PCM WAVE, 16-bit, Stereo, 44KHz file. If you want to encode a mono WAV file then you need to select the mono option in Ultimate Encoder options dialog.
NOTE: Try to not use too long path names, in some situations Ultimate Encoder can't open files with too long path names.
- Why the MP3 files produced by Ultimate Encoder sounds better than the MP3 files produced by other encoders ?
Because we optimized the encoding engine without skiping any sound filters. Other encoders skips many sound filters in order to get higher encoding speeds, but they produce noisy MP3 files which have too much high frequencies. We are for quality, not for encoding speed.
- Which encoding bitrate is best to use ?
For a good music/sound quality we recommend using 160kbps or more. If you want to encode voice it's best to use 128kbps or less, with mono WAV files.
WMA files also sounds very good at 128kbps, better than MP3 at 128kbps.
