software

I'm using Cakewalk Music Creator Pro24 and for a while it let me convert my files to MP3's so I could share with all of you blokes. Now the free trial is done with and I'm wondering if there's a FREE way to convert these Cakewalk files to MP3's. I just finished redoing some work, wrote a new song, and am in progress in one of the forum jams... but now I need help!

iTunes will do it in one click on a MAC, dont know about PC though

Interesting, I'll see what I can do with that... I know it's on my computer somewhere!

EDIT : Hacker, I don't exactly see what you mean... It won't even let me import the file over to iTunes... because it's still a Cakewalk file.

musicmatch jukebox is free

Thanks Stevo, but when I get into the quot;Convert Filesquot; area - it only allows me to convert MP3, WAV, or MP3PRO files. I think Cakewalk made their files a special way, thus the label Cakewalk files, which doesn't allow me to convert it unless I pay them directly. Bastards? If this proves to be true - yes.

Anyone with Cakewalk experience?

I use Sonar (cakewalks big brother). Export your song as a wave file and then use music match to convert the wave to mp3. Now I am not sure you're software has the ability to export, check in by clicking on quot;FILEquot; on the top.
Good luck.

EDIT: Found it out ... Thanks again Al.

If it doesn't work, you could serach for quot;lame mp3 encoderquot;. thats what I have.

Thanks for having my back g123, but I got it figured out. Take it easy.

Guitarist, on my new Mac Mini, iTunes has an option to quot;convert current selection to MP3quot;. Its in the advanced menu. But i guess if you cant import it to iTunes, then you'd have to get into a file format that is iTunes friendly.
