I’m using windows XP and Audacity 2.0.2. I’m trying to import files from an Olympus LS-7 recorder. The LS-7 can record in Linear PCM , MP3 and WMA formats. Audacity will only accept files in MP3. How can I get Audacity to import either Linear PCM or WMA?

What happens when you try to import the PCM or WMA files?
You can install the optional FFmpeg library to import WMA:

FFmpeg may or may not help with “Linear PCM” - it depends what headers the file has. What error appears when you import a “Linear PCM” file now, without FFmpeg?

Thanks so much. By down loading FFmpeg Audacity will now import Linear PCM and WMA files as well as MP3. Huge help!!
