How can I "mark" and output as chopped up MP3s?

Post by jeremym » Mon Sep 07, 2009 2:37 pm

I'm trying my best to do something that "the other guys" can do..

I have a 2 hour WAV audio file.

I want to "mark regions" then output each of those regions (automatically) to MP3 files.

Is this possible? Thanks.

While your show is on the timeline, set a label at the beginning of each song. In Windows, Control-B. Then File > Export Multiple. That will give you a pile of individual files. It's possible that 1.2 will only let you export WAV files that way. Audacity 1.3 will let you export MP3s.

As Koz says - but if you want more detail see this page from the wiki: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php? ... ate_tracks
