Iomega RecordIt
RecordIt is a recording app for Windows and Mac OS Classic created by Iomega.
Its main goal was enabling customers of their Zip drives to rip CDs and make
the tracks fit inside one Zip disk (100MB).
That is achieved encoding the tracks to MP2 files. The compression technology
was licensed from QDesign (of QDMC fame) and it is,
indeed, a quite decent MP2 encoder (unlike their MP3 encoder, which is just
horrible).
I could only get the Windows version to install on Win9x - it will not work
at all on WinNT and variants. The interface is quite garish. In case you must
know, the stars for quality mean: 4 stars = 256kbps, 3 stars = 192kbps, 2
stars = 112kbps, and 1 star = 24kbps/22kHz.
It is worth mentioning the program is not really an encoder, but a recorder -
which means, it will not accept .wav files for input. It will only encode
from an audio CD, line-in, or a microphone.
The RecordIt web page at Iomega can still be reached at archive.org.
