Hi Frank,

When you install Lame, you will need to copy the lame_enc.dll file into the c:\Realband directory.

Once the above .dll is located in the Realband folder, start up Realband, load the song, choose "Merge audio and DXi tracks to compressed file" and the click ok. At this stage, the only option available is the WAV format. Once that file is created, though, Lame will kick in and you'll get a new window that offers the option to convert to mp3. Simply select the bitrate that you want from the many available and click ok. (At least that's how it works for me.)

To convert to mp3s, Realband needs an mp3 encoder added to it's directory because it doesn't ship with such an encoder. (By the way, Lame is free. Always a great price!)

All the best,
Noel
