Re: a somewhat techie question about the LAME encoder and Total Recorder
Hi Larry, Did you get the full lame release? I mean did you get the razorlame which I would call a front end for the lame encoder? Here you can make a number of adjustments to the encoder. However, I am not sure if those adjustments will be passed to gold wave when you use the encoder. This is probably a dumb question, but if you record to .wav format, do you get the image shift? Not sure this waffle helps, but it might help a little. Just a lame excuse don't you know.

Re: a somewhat techie question about the LAME encoder and Total Recorder
Hi Joe, I think I have a copy of Razorlame on the puter somewhere. Actually, I was making the recording using Total Recorder. Also, I managed to find the settings I was looking for, at least some of them. I really felt kinda silly after I realized where they were located, under changes in the Recording source and parameters tab. I think the shift may now be gone, but I'll keep listening lest they turn up again. I will also put TR through the .wav test to make sure that the problem doesn't some how rest with either my XM receiver, or maybe those shifts were introduced into the reproduction I was recording by the producers for reasons known only to them g. Hope you'll hang in there with me, because I might need some help with the finer points of using Razorlame.

Re: a somewhat techie question about the LAME encoder and Total Recorder
hi I wonder if it's the version of the lame encoder being used? I did hear about some artifacts in some files with some versions, so i would try updatiing your lame dll file and see if that helps any, i hope. that problem can be extremely annoying!!!
