        -P, --psyc-mode psyc     psychoacoustic model -1 to 4 (default 3)
        -v, --vbr                enable VBR mode
        -V, --vbr-level lev      enable VBR and set VBR level -50 to 50 (default 5)
        -B, --max-bitrate rate   set the upper bitrate when in VBR mode
        -l, --ath lev            ATH level (default 0.0)
        -q, --quick num          only calculate psy model every num frames
        -S, --single-frame       only encode a single frame of MPEG Audio

Miscellaneous Options
        -c, --copyright          mark as copyright

        -o, --non-original       mark as non-original
            --original           mark as original (default)
        -p, --protect            enable CRC error protection
        -d, --padding            force padding bit/frame on
        -R, --reserve-bits num   set number of reserved bits in each frame
        -e, --deemphasis emp     de-emphasis n/5/c (default: (n)one)
        -E, --energy             turn on energy level extensions

Verbosity Options
        -t, --talkativity num    talkativity 0-10 (default is 2)
            --quiet              same as --talkativity=0
