I for the life of me cannot seem to keep the kbps rate the same after cropping a mp3. The sound quality always comes out crap compared to the original. For instance, the original is around 300, but the edited file goes down to 80. I cannot find anywhere on either Audacity or Nero WaveEditor that lets me change this. All I want to do is cut some of the song out while preserving the quality of the song.
