[iTunes] Another 8/9 shortfall

[list boy]

Wasn't it possible back in 7 to set different import settings for  
mono/stereo?

I have an app (StarPlayr) that records satellite radio as an AIFF;  
then iTunes encodes as mp3.

My problem is I want  to record in the morning (Howard Stern) at 24  
kbps, then later on record music (at 128 kbps).

I seem to remember older versions being able to accommodate this. Now  
it seems like one size fits all.
