freeware standalone wav to mp3 converter ?

freeware standalone wav to mp3 converter ?

2005-06-17 by highflightfoundation

Hi all

can anyone recommend me a freeware wav to mp3 converter ?
which runs on a mac osx.

I thought there would be many, but I have not really found one yet after some time searching.
Barbabatch looks cool but is not cheap, and I really hope to find a free one.

I was expecting itunes to do the job but surprisingly it would not !!!
itunes could convert aiff to mp3 no problem, but wav seemed to be a problem.

i have been asked to find this utility by a friend, who has no pro music software.
for my own use, I can just use logic pro to sort out these matters :-)

thanks in advance

pete

$30 is too much?
If not: Amadeus II

Far more than a converter...

I don't know why you had problems but Itunes does do this and it is
free.

You need to go into the preferences and change the import options to mp3
vs whatever you currently have it set to.

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
