This is all new to me. Follow this: So I get this little cheezy 10 buck PC mic at PC City. Plug it into the computer, ok ? cool. There's this sorry little thing on the computer that I came across called a sound recorder. Sooooo, I grab my acoustic and record....I get 1 minute recording time...which is probably all ya can bear to hear anyway, I'm new to acoustic and still feel like I'm playing a washboard.
Now I save the recording, go to post it on here, it's in WAV only.
Then the religious moment happens, I read a thread about a free download called Audacity, so I load it, record a little something and save it in my documents.
With me?...sorry for all this ..now I go to post it, see it's also a WAV..so I find a drop down window that says export to MP3. Go and do that, then it tells me I can't do that without having (lame:dll?), which by the way is how I'm feeling about now.
Now I get another window, with this LAME highlighted in blue and below it says MP3 file. It's asking to locate this file I believe. I search in documents, C drive, my computer etc...it's not there....what gives? I'm really getting frustrated here.

Hi Garry, we don't want you to have any excuse for not posting your stuff in the recording booth, so check out the link below. The thread may may contain links to other info as well.
Good luck mate.

go back to the Audacity download site, you'll see where there is a download link for the .dll..........you have to download it to somewhere you'll know where it is (create a new folder)..then when you get that window asking where the .dll is....you'll know where it is.

Just moving this thread to the troublshooting forum Garry. Here's the page to download the LAME MP3 encoder if you haven't got it yet. - http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/windows
