Grundig LED manual Encoder, Ripper/CD ROM

Directory to store	Determines the directory in which the Wave files are saved
ripped [WAV] files
- Encoder	Determines the settings for the encoding:
Select encoder	Select desired encoder software; you can choose between the Lame
	Encoder (a good, fast encoder) and the Dialog Medien Encoder (you
	should only use this if you have problems with Lame) You can also
	install a different make of encoder as an external encoder. For this you
	will have to enter the path to the program and various command line
	arguments.
Select Bit rate	Here you can determine the bit rate (between 32 KBit and 256 KBit).
	The higher the bit rate, the better the quality – but also the larger the file.
Mono/Stereo	Here you can switch from mono to stereo encoding. The default setting
	is stereo. If you would like to reduce the amount of data or encode
	speech, you can switch to mono. The amount of data will then be redu-
	ced by a half.
Downsample to 22 kHz	Here the sampling rate (see glossary) can be reduced to 22 kHz.
Delete wave files	Here you can determine whether the original .WAV files on your hard
after MP3 is created	disk are automatically deleted after they have been encoded.
Use external encoder	Here the encoder of another supplier can be implemented as an exter-
	nal encoder. In this event you must define a path to the program and
	enter various command-line arguments.
- Ripper/CD ROM
Default filename	Here you can determine the provisional name of the ripped wave files;
	the tracks on the CD will be consecutively numbered (e.g. from wave-
	dump1 to wavedump14). It is important to be able to change the default
	name if you want to rip more than one CD at one go and the files are
	to be saved in the same directory. By altering the default name you can
	prevent the music tracks from the first CD from being overwritten.
