LAME

Post by emjay_uk_2000 » Mon Feb 17, 2014 9:09 am

At home I have, on our PC, the Audacity programme version 2.0.5. - which is an update/

I need the file LAME - now I did have this file for the old version of the programme? However when I tried to use it it said I needed an updated version of said file!

I've tried looking online but, apart from sites that looks a bit virusey to me, I can't find it! Can anyone point me to the correct place?

Many thanks in advance - this is stressing me out a fair bit!

Please don't post the same topic twice. I deleted your duplicate post.

If you read the Release Notes for 2.0.5 ( http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Notes_2.0.5 ) it says at the top in the yellow box about Windows:
Users upgrading to 2.0.x versions from 1.3.6 or earlier must download the latest version of the LAME MP3 encoder.
Did you click the link to http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/fa ... .html#lame to do that?

When you go to the buanzo site you have to click on the text link that says "Lame_v3.99.3_for_Windows.exe" then run that installer.

Do not click on any download buttons because they are advertising for other products.
