This is not exactly a recommended by me procedure, Frank. The problem is that
each of these audio compression formats throws away different bits that are
not important sonicly when being played back. But when you mix them, then
you have the added results of yet another different throwaway, and unless you
have a totally tin ear, the results are very tiring and even mushy to listen
to.
If the original CD's are available, it would be many times better sonicly to
re-rip them to ogg format. I use a q7 setting for my ripping and cannot tell
the diff between the cd and the file. The file size at q7 seems to be a bit
smaller than a variable ratio mp3, and I can still tell the diff using mp3,
even at my age. I guess a broadcast engineers ears are fussier or something
cuz my hearing is not that good when tested, with 'carhart' notches 120+ db
deep.
