MP3 Export garbled
I'm having trouble getting a clean MP3 Lame copy. Normally, I wouldn't have the ear to notice a difference between WAV and MP3, but now my MP3 exports are really sounding ugly. What's the remedy?

Re: MP3 Export garbled
What version of Audacity and LAME are you using, and on what computer platform? What are your bitrate settings for the MP3 export?

Re: MP3 Export garbled
in Audacity 1.3 the bit rate can be changed by clicking on the options button when you export (save) as mp3 ...

For a sample rate of 44100Hz don't use a bit rate below 128Kbps for stereo if you want good quality sound.
