Thanks, Damien. You don't actually need a new version of lame_enc.dll if your old version was working in Audacity 2.x. You will probably want to read http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Windows_8_OS in case you have to enable inputs in Windows "Sound" so that Audacity can see them, or need t...

Append record shows this very clearly.

You should be able to install LAME into the normal Windows Program Files (x86) directory. Those are the swh LADSPA plug-in set for Windows. I have tipped all those and another 100 LADSPA plug-ins for Windows into the Audacity "Plug-Ins" folder and I can still export MP3. The DWI file you s...
