Re: Exporting to MP3 with Lame taking 14+ hours

What other encoders are out there? I tried the FFmpeg one but I couldn't figure out how to actually use it. I suspect it ...

Re: Exporting to MP3 with Lame taking 14+ hours

It constantly is telling me I am low on memory - I've been meaning to fix this, but, money. My computer has a 500gb hard drive in the keyboard, which I have been using for Audacity.

Exporting to MP3 with Lame taking 14+ hours
