I once bought a Rod Stewart and Dolly Parton track on the Internet. It had
some protection scheme on it so I couldn't even move it to a different
computer to play it. So, I recorded it using Total Recorder while I was
playing it with Winamp. Total Recorder created a .wav file. So I used
GoldWave to convert the .wav to a .mp3. Now I can play it on anything I own
that plays mp3 files.
Back in another time, when I was collecting 45's, no one told me I couldn't
play my records on any machine I chose; nor give them away; nor record them
with my open reel machine.

Hey John: Thanks for the instructions..I actually _did_ find that file (I
just wasn't sure where to look)..now here's another one for ya: let's say
you want to put a file that it's converted into a particular place; how is
this done?

High Tom,
When you brought up Switch, When you tab over, you should have saw
something that says, output folder combo box: my documents, 1 of 5,
alt plus I.
And as for the inner workings of the file, if you tab over to that
area, it will say, "encoder options."
Right there is where the stereo joint stereo and force stereo options
are.
Also, tabbing over just once more will get you to the bit rate settings.
Hope this helps.
My best regards.
John.

Hi John and list: Well..I thought I had done something like you said
(is the file actually supposed to play?)..anyhow..I cannot figure
where it's putting the file! But will read through these
instructions..and give it another shot! But right now..I'm just not
understanding..will my file have the same name..only with the ".MP3"
extension? Please forgive me if I'm just not understanding all of this
very well!

High Tom,
Highlight the file by having the curser pointing at it.
Go in to your file menu and scroll down to Switch.
Tab over to where it says file options or something rather like that.
Hit the space bar.
You will see a list of file types.
If the default file isn't .mp3, then scroll up or down until you get
to that one.
It also gives you the option to set the bit rate and stereo joint
stereo or force stereo.
After you have done this, then tab over to ok, hit the space bar.
then tab over to the convert button and hit the space bar again.
At this point, Switch will start converting the file to .mp3.
But now that Switch is sat to convert files to .mp3, you can follow
the steps above.
But only, you will hit the F3 key to start Switch to converting
files to .mp3.
Hope this helps.
My best regards.
John.

Hello list: Hopefully I don't sound too ignorant..but I've
downloaded "Switch"..but so far..have no idea as to how it works!
So if some of you could get me pointed in the right
direction..would be much appreciated! For instance..I have a couple
of these files that I've mentioned earlier that I need to convert to
MP3s; so how is this done?
