>I agree. To go through a PA, which is usually not the best sound quality,
128k is probably enough. For personal listening I usually use 192 or 256,
but on a PA 128 would do, assuming your encoder is good.

That said there is the occasional audio file with odd phase stuff going on
which doesn't convert well.

Also, if your PA is mono, a mono MP3 at the same bitrate will likely improve
quality.

Cheers,

Hi Rod,

I can get those clicks and inconsistant playback over some edits
with a UAD rev 4.7 too. It can be the case over other plugins too.

I'm using a Radeon 9600 dual head now.
It is fine in all other ways though. I think it's a Paris/UAD thing.=20
I had been using a Matrox G550 and before that a G400.
All exibit the same behavior give or take.
