LAME is only for exporting MP3 files - Audacity can already import them. What exactly happens when you import the audio files into Audacity? What is the error message? If you like you can download MediaInfo (get the version without installer): http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/Download/Windows Swi...

It didn't like the FFmpeg thing either, so I took a chance and changed the install location for LAME to the Audacity app folder itself, and everything (including me) is now happy. The burning question, though, is what happened? As I mentioned, I have been doing the same things with Audacity for yea...

Audacity should be able to see it as long as its drivers include WDM. On Windows you probably won't be able to record more than two simultaneous input channels unless you compile Audacity with ASIO support, or perhaps unless you are on older Windows like XP.
