Hi there,
In my old version of Audacity, it would record as an aup, and then when I went into "file" there was an option to "Export as MP3". I've just downloaded the new version of Audacity - 1.3.9. I've gone into to try and export an MP3 and its all different. There are a few "Export" options, but I can't see anything that lets me export as MP3 - can anyone help?
Thanks!
Beccy

File menu > Export > (Click "OK" on the Metadata Editor if it opens *) > Select the format type (the default is WAV 16 bit PCM)
Some Export types (such as MP3) have additional option which are accessed through the "Options" button after selecting the format type.
* There is a setting in "Preferences" (Edit menu > Preferences) to set if the metadata editor should automatically open on Export.
