of the output and the bitrate of the output. The
higher the sampling and bitrates of each of
these parameters, the better the quality of the
sound.
Memory and Audio
Quality
The MP3 memory size and MP3 quality are
related. The higher the quality required, the
higher the bitrate needed. This leads to more
data storage and memory requirements. As
NOMAD Jukebox has a huge storage capacity
of 6 GB, you should set your encoding bitrate
to at least 128 kbps for optimal quality when
you create MP3 files from audio CDs using
PlayCenter 2. You can still store more than
100 hours of digital music.
