Converting WAV to MP3 Need Help to get my clips posted!

Post by harddriver » Wed Nov 21, 2007 11:29 pm

My recorder downloads as WAV files what the best way to convert these to MP3 files?

I didn't think it would be such a hassle, but it seems like it is.

I downloaded CDextrator but it doesn't have a way to open my WAV file.

What is the most simple way here? I'm looking for something easy and fast and a free download if possible. If not what is buyable?

here is the one i use.

converting many file types is just a right click away with this application. It works great. ;)

I think iTunes does it and it's free. Open a WAV file and you'll find an option to convert to mp3.

I use CD-EX to convert Wav to Mp3 and vica-versa. Very simple to use.

Itunes does it for free, with choices from 320kb down for the stream, too.
