Hey all. I'm using SoundForge 9, and If I want to extract audio from a CD, but convert the audio to a 320 kbps, how would I do that?

Is it a matter of 'saving as' and choosing the 320 kbps, or is there a preference to change under 'extracting audio from cd' that will automatically extract at 320kbps?

Thanks,
Mark

"saving as" is the way.

When you extract, it will extract it to an uncompressed wave file. So simply save as, like you thought. It's best this way too - as you can control any unneccasry silence that may exist between tracks too.

one more quick question...

What is the difference between:

320 Kbps CD Transparent Audio
&
320 Kbps CD Transparent Audio, Unicode

Unicode uses 16 bit characters for titles and labels and this allows all the international alphabets to be used. Without unicode the 8 bit ASCII character set will be used. That's about the only difference.
