Sample Rate

Choose a bit depth from the drop-down list to specify the number of bits used to represent a single sample. Higher bit-depths produce higher fidelity audio, but also require additional storage space. Lower bit-depths require less storage space, but tend to reveal quantization noise.


Bit Depth

Choose a bit depth from the drop-down list to specify the number of bits used to represent a single sample. Higher values will increase the quality of the playback. While 8-bit samples take up less memory (and hard disk space), they are inherently noisier than 16 or 24-bit samples.


Channels

Choose a setting from the drop-down list to specify the number of channels in your encoded file.
