Can't convert to anything...

Post by blessed_nokomis » Wed Jun 24, 2009 6:35 pm

Alright...

I've downloaded the latest version of LAME that I could find, but Audacity tells me that it's not compatible.
Also, somehow I was able to convert my file to a .wav, but the file actually did not convert to anything. It's just a file with no type...it's really odd. Also now when I try File > Export > Save As... the only thing I can save the file as in .xml

Thanks in advance!

Audacity isn't a really good converter, sometimes even when it's supposed to be.

However, Audacity will sometimes lead you down the garden path and blow you up when you least expect it.

Where did the show come from? Audacity doesn't manage foreign and odd filetypes very well.
