Bitrate is the average number of bits one second of audio data will consume and has a direct relationship to the quality of an MP3. For near-CD quality, the bitrate need only be 96 Kbps. However, for CD quality, encode all CDs at 128 Kbps or 160 Kbps. As the Kbps number increases, expect your MP3’s file size to increase as well. This may seem like a trivial point, but as your MP3 collection grows larger, available hard-drive storage space grows smaller. To change the bitrate settings in ScrewLab: after you record your song. Choose the bitrate that’s appropriate for you. If you have the hard-drive space, leave it at 128 Kbps.
What is a Mp3?
