steve, i have that but the program will not make mp3s. i can get it to make waves but not mp3s even when i select to save as mp3. something is kind of confusing. in the encoders tab of settings you choose mp3. I got that. now you would think to choose mp3 right in the save audio dialog right?

I'm not certain of the answer, but I believe there is a button to refresh the information in the library. Maybe that has to be done. Also, there are a lot of fields in the properties dialog, so maybe there is another that needs to be changed. I must tell you that some of how this all works
