MP3 Bit Rate

Post by jdmiller » Tue Apr 06, 2010 5:39 am

In the stable version of Audacity, you can change this via Edit->Preferences File Format tab. How do you do this in the beta version (ie: this option appears to be missing in the preferences area)??

Thanks

That's correct . Audacity 1.3 lets you set it individually for each export at the export step.

<<Audacity 1.3 lets you set it individually for each export at the export step.>>

Use the Options button in the export dialog box.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you with a reply. It has been a while since I ran sound...

I cannot find an "Options" button on the "Edit Metadata" screen.

I'm guessing that I am looking at the wrong place.

Thanks!!

I have my Audacity metada stuff turned off so I don't see this window anymore.

IIRC when you move from the metadata editing to the next window you should see the Options buttion on the actual export dialog window.

I had a hard time finding this as well. When you choose where the file will be saved, the option button is right below the "Save" and "Cancel" buttons.
