I made a recording on Audacity. I just have the free version. Can someone tell me how I convert the file to an mp3 or anything that i can post on here?

File > Export as mp3

you might need to get a codec that lets you export to mp3, I think it's called FLAC. just google it.

I figured out a way to do it with Itunes. The cover is posted down a thread. I would really appreciate a listen from someone to at least know if the conversion worked for other people to hear.

No.

I know Ian got his problem figured out, but I must say that FLAC is not at all the same thing as mp3. FLAC encodes to FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec). mp3 encodes to mp3, which is a lossy codec.

oops, I meant the LAME encoder. sorry, haven't gotten a lot of sleep lately

For anyone reading this, LAME is by far the best sounding mp3 encoding codec there is right now.

Why not AIFF?
Tha's some good stuff right dur.

I surprised people use audacity, That app makes it impossible to find anything.

Audacity is a great program if you take the time to learn how to use it. The problem is that the documentation sucks. But once you learn the workflow, it's great.

I use it in post processing for all the shows I tape.

Can you record multiple tracks with audacity? Im making my girlfriend a cd for christmas and I dont really want it to be all just one take songs with vocals and an acoustic guitar.

Yep.

I haven't used it in forever, so I might be wayyy off, but maybe Track>New track

You probably want all the tracks to be mono, then sum to stereo at the very end.
