Tricked Out
Best MP3 encoding settings for RAZR
I've encoded several clips from songs that I've extracted, they play fine on my RAZR, but they are still a bit large, and fill up my memory fast.
For example:
39 second MP3
Bit Rate: 64kbps mono
Sample Rate: 48kHz
Size: 312KB
Does this seem a bit large? What bit rate would you suggest?
Thanks,
Sean

I think what you're currently using for the rip is the minimum for quality of the MP3. Anything less and you'll be sacrificing quality drastically.

Yeah, That's kind of what I was thinking. I'm wondering though at what point does it become noticeable through a phones speaker....
...
I believe you'll hear noise distortion once you drop to the 32 kbs threshold.

I put all of my ringtones at a bitrate of 128Kbps stereo 48kHz, sounds just great clear as can be. which is surprising becasue its a speaker on a cell phone, the RAZR has a very good speaker.
...
i use a program called Audacity, i just choose the ringtone i want and change the settings to 128kbps and 48khz and save the selection as an mp3. then i use p2ktools to put it on the phone.

With audacity just save at lowest setting. Your phones output doesn't let you here higher bit rates anyways. Also, on a razor 39 second clips are to long. 10 seconds is fine. I produce music and use FLstudio or ableton for my ringtones. I use audacity for loops editing (less since I got ableton) and I know there are many fetures to clean up lower bitrate mp3s. Check your lame codec settings as well.
