A personal LAME APS problem tracks test.

Any conclusions yet?

Could you somehow say that there's less artifact with V2 than wth V0 

I have tried most of those tracks on V0 and most of seem to be transparent and some just sound better, but sometimes I can ABX V0 aswell and I have managed to spot more artifacts on more tracks at V2. It kinda sucks when you can manage to ABX a 280kbps VBR Mp3 with a cheap soundcard and headphones. And sometimes V1 ends up the same file size as V0 does and for some reason the artifact on Back The F**k at V1 sounds alot worse.

That's theorically "sad" because from a version to another there's improvement as well as the contrary. Even worse a command line could be great with a song and not that good with another one!

Apart from that, in a practical way, my ears aren't well trained so V5 could do me (  don't hit me!)

EDIT: do you think you could make a difference (ABX) between 320 and V0?
