Audacity Forum

I can't get Audacity to work with LAME, nor any advice on how to do so. Does anyone have any recommendations for a paid audio voice recording program than can create MP3s. Thanks.

If you're determined to throw up your hands. I really like my older license for Cool Edit which was the basis of Adobe Audition. I have both licenses. Highly recommended.

Thanks for responding. What really irks me is that it was working yesterday! I can't even download the 1.3 version -- I get an error msg. And the LAME site gives me a 403. And I am not getting any help re how to fix any of this fro the forum. So I guess I need to pay for something..... What do you think of Propaganda? (http://www.makepropaganda.com/products.html ) All I want to do is create simple podcasts in MP3 format. I've worked on this issue for 6 hrs today. I really appreciate your taking the time to help. I'll look into your suggestion too.

Did we insist you go through all the Windows craziness with defag, error check, and capacity, etc. etc. In other words, if you have a suddenly insane machine, that sound an awful lot like a driving filling up.

Error 403 is a permissions issue. "You don't have permissions to access these files..."

That's very strange....

Yeah, strange it is. I just de-fragged and tried the usual suspect reboot solution. No change. Then CA anti-virus gives me the EFW extension sted .exe and it took me a while to solve that one. What a day. Something wrong with this computer, but I don't have time to fritz with it -- a client awaits. I guess I'll try Propaganda -- looks good for my purposes: http://www.makepropaganda.com/products.html

Thanks again from a fellow curmudgeon....
