LAME MP3
|
link
|
From the Free-Codecs.com website.
Despite its name, LAME is perhaps
the best free MP3 encoder available.
Download and open the zip file to extract the lame_enc.dll file
(PKZIP or
WinZip may be needed to
extract the file if you are not using Windows ME or XP/Vista).
Copy the lame_enc.dll
file into the folder where GoldWave is installed
(usually C:\Program Files\GoldWave)
or copy it into the C:\Windows\System (or equivalent) folder.

CALOGG00 DLL

170k zip

This download adds Ogg Vorbis 1.0
support to GoldWave. Vorbis is a patent-free
audio encoding standard. It compresses audio just as much as MP3,
often with better quality.
To install, unzip the calogg00.zip file into the
C:\Windows\System (or C:\WinNT\System32 or equivalent)
folder.

BladeEnc DLL
|
83k zip
|
BladeEnc is an alternative to LAME,
but only supports the higher sampling
rates (32000Hz to 48000Hz).
Unzip the BEnc-094-Win-i586-dll.zip file in the
C:\Windows\System
(or C:\WinNT\System32 or equivalent) folder.

Media Player Website
|
link
|
Media Player installs all the decoders needed to open MP3 files and
to access audio within video files. GoldWave will display a message
if you need to install Media Player.

Known Issues and Solutions
Although every effort has been made to ensure GoldWave runs properly, some
combinations of sound/video drivers and hardware are unstable. Make sure
all the latest Windows Updates are installed on your system.
- On some systems, using different read techniques in
the CD audio extraction tool may freeze the system.
In most cases only the MMC technique should be used.
- LAME_ENC.DLL version 3.88 creates bad mono MP3 files. Use v3.92 or
later (link above).
- Dragging a window over the real time graphs
will leave pixel debris.
