Continue to press the "Next" button until you've completed the task. Right-click and choose "Install," then restart your computer. I like that model better.Installing Lame for Audacity is a simple process with no extra tools required. I have a number of programs where I just point to the LAME DLL and it uses it. That allows for easy upgrades to newer versions. I personally would like to see PGMusic change to support the standalone version. It has to go through the Windows registry. That's because the stand alone version is not "installed" the files are just copied to a folder and then you have to tell your program to use them. Over the years I have seen many people say, "I downloaded LAME" and unzipped it to a folder and it still doesn't work. That's why you have to install the ACM version of the CODEC, because this registers in Windows registry. It uses standard calls to the registry to locate the installation of various CODECS.
PGMusic products, however, rely on CODECS registered within the Windows registry. Many other programs do allow the use of the standalone (either the EXE or call the DLL version) and you have to point the program to those files. Just to drive the point home, if you want to create MP3's directly from BIAB (or RealBand or PowerTracks), you CANNOT just download the LAME (or anyone else's, for that matter) stand alone MP3 CODEC. Will not fix world problems of hunger and injustice, but all issues regarding format conversion will be solved within the state of our current art. You are looking for the lame_enc.dll file from the LAME page to put in the WinLame folder with the WinLame exe file.įrom this point on, you are set. Secret of the windows use of *.dll files is that the dll located in the program directory with the exe file of the program will use that dll over whatever is cluttered in the system directories. Receding into the past, but all you need or can hear any difference in.
Then, get the actual mp3 encoder upgraded. Go with WinLame front end for the LAME mp3 encoder: Can go with this alone if only mp3 conversion is needed. Shareware and freebie dismantles the mp3 codec in a month if you don't buy, but leaves all other native or free optional codecs fully functional.Ĭheap option is to let the mp3 encoder to go south, keep the exquisite functions regarding other formats.įor mp3, need an open source supplement. Would recommend buying the registered version. Thus render the PowerTracks session to a decent wave file. I always render to a wav file, maybe a final stereo mix directly from the DAW, and rely on an external agent to manage the subtleties of format conversion. Maybe just superstition, but I never trust a DAW for conversion to another format. Been a long time since opening PowerTracks, but can offer an approach to consider.
