The only time I make MP3s is when I want to post or send a recording, and I make it from already existing 2-track.wav mixes. So, I don't know from experience what happens when you use a program to make an MP3 from Home Studio. Boten, you said: '. When you export to mp3 right from Home Studio you apply destructive compression to the mixdown.' Is that right?

It destructively changes your project's original audio files? I thought it made an MP3 version of the project, but that you could stay in Sonar to make a regular.wav file mix with the original unchanged audio files. I have that wrong? Randy rbowser. Is that right?

Randy, what I meant was that the export file itself is destructively compressed. Of course you can always come back to the project and create a RIFF export. I usually do only one 16 bit (RIFF of course) export and do the conversions externally to save the need for additional export.

Good, Boten, thanks for the clarification. I think the mistaken impression was made earlier that you would permanently change your project's audio files if you made an MP3 from HS. It only takes moments to export a mix down, so if you have a dedicated MP3 program, one may as well stay there in HS and do several flavors of export at once--standard.wav export, and MP3 at different compression levels. You don't have to leave HS after doing an export, so there's no real hassle to it. But as I said, and you're saying you do the same thing, Boten, MP3s are something I do, if I do at all, later on after I have projects wrapped up.

By the way, the MP3 encoder I use is the one in my old copy of Pro Audio 9. That program still comes in handy, as has been said several times recently on the Forum. Randy rbowser. Hey, sorry to resurrect but it seemed more logical than a whole new thread.

'Audacity' is a software application that provides you with a full set of tools that you can simply utilize to edit or modify audio files and add amazing effects by means of an easy-to-use user interface.

I am getting this prompt too. It came up for a while before but then it just stopped coming up. I have exported plenty of tunes into MP3 but now it says i cant and need to do this. All i had to do before was change the bit depth to 16 and it worked fine.

Am i missing something or has something changed? As i never had it before. Edit: never mind, i just checked it out and it was the apparent 30 day free trial i am guessing. Though quite why they had to do that i dont know, seems kind of stupid. It would be logical to just leave the encoder as part and parcel but i guess they just want to sting folks for money.

Going to check out the free ones now. I am not having much luck with this. I downloaded an encoder called switch but ended up with the same hassles, one week then it blocked all converting unless i paid for it.

I tried a few others but i seem to hit trouble with my windows being 64 bit as i get so far and then they just heave up errors and never finish the installation. A couple of them were little more than malware/adware that took a long time to get rid of.

Anyone got any recommendations? I would really rather not buy the encoder as there seem to be plenty around, i just cant get them to work.

I used to export from audacity as MP3 but i cant get any files from sonar to audacity to do that without them turning into a 5 second screech. Christofloffer i am not having much luck with this.

I suggest you use the lastest LAME encoder (free, opensource, works) which you can run from within Sonar. See for instructions for doing that (links are out of date).

When I went to encode a track, I made some errors filling out the dialog which were quickly corrected with scook's help. Here's in case you do something similar. The lastest LAME version is 3.99.5 and the 64-bit windows version can be had here: An older thread that should still be relevant. Noel Borthwick [Cakewalk] The easiest way to export MP3 in SONAR is to buy the It costs $10.

The reason its not free is because MP3 encoding is still a patent owned by Fraunhofer. When I followed your link and added the MP3 encoder to my cart, It said it was for old Cakewalk products? 'Cakewalk MP3 Encoder Download. $9.99 MP3 Encoding for Old Cakewalk Products' When I clicked on 'More Info' I got the information below. 'Additional Information Activate the MP3 encoder that comes with Cakewalk software: use with SONAR 1-3, Pro Audio 9, Home Studio 9 & 2002, Guitar Tracks 2 & Pro, Pro Tracks, Club Tracks, Plasma, and Music Creator (except version 3-7).' Is this MP3 Encoder compatible with the latest Sonar? Does it need an update?
