I uploaded the audio to Windows Movie Maker (without any pictures) and listened to it. YIKES!!! Horrible!! .. @Don,

I think I saved my audio in the wrong format. I thought I saved it to MP3 but it's in WMA. Could try again.



Sounded to me like he was saying his wma didn't work right in WinMovieMaker.
Maybe I did miss the point (?)
wma *should* load in WinMediaPlayer without issue, and not lose any quality


Yes, I did, it sucked in Windows Movie Maker. I jsut wanted the AUDIO to work. But I ORIGINALLY meant for this topic to be something else. (That it branched out a bit is good for me as the probloem is somewhat related, I think). I did my original post BEFORE I tried to upload the WMA file to YouTube (just as an audio) and YouTube wouldn't go for it.

That's when, after some searching, I was lead to Windows Movie Maker (which I have had of course) so I tried the file there and it was bad. The thing is that on SoundCloud it sounds good so, as usual, I'm stumped. (But my life's not over YET because of this. I'm determined! ) Never thought about it before (but seen TONS on YouTube) but the "SLIDESHOW" thing I might make use of down the road but for now I really just want the AUDIO to get to YouTube. But, granted, it's mostly a VIDEO w/AUDIO site not an AUDIO only like SoundCloud is. But I really didn't do ANYTHING because click on stuff. I clicked to get the WMA file to SoundCloud and it worked and I clicked to get the audio to WMM and it sucked. But I'll try some more a bit later today.

Anyhow, I'm in the process of yet ANOTHER topic about something that has me stumped and, yes, I HAVE tried to solve the problem myself, just can't. I did a Google about how to install the LAME .dll and now it works with both Reaper and Audacity. But why does RB seem to save to .SEQ files (and a few other strange) files? Why not MP3? Oops, don't answer that, off to a new topic.

Start with an uncompressed wave in Movie Maker, you are compressing it twice if you don't. I think.


Will try that.
