You have to remember that output umx will have either low quality and reasonable file size, or good quality and huge file size. U1 227 can play both mp3 and ogg so you may consider switching.

AFAIK only with FMod or OpenAL as sound driver.

How I do it (though, it apparently doesn't work for everyone) is to convert the MP3 to OGG (or wave to OGG) via Easy CD-DA Extractor, then import it to UnrealEd, then save it as UMX. Works wonderfully for me.

You can directly import mp3 into unrealed, using the "All Files" dialog in import, but it's not officially supported{no copyright issues, please!}. If you get weird results, it would be wise to convert to OGG first.

Yes, mp3 is not officially supported by any UEngine because of copyrights. I suspect that 227 can play mp3 as a 'side effect' of using FMod/OpenAL (both FMod and OpenAL gives ability to play mp3 ang oog; in FMod theres one function to play large variety of formats).
