Chiki:Speaki/Install
From Chiki
Before you start you will have to download and install Audacity, a free audio editor and recorder. Download Audacity from here. Installation should be pretty straightforward - you should then be able to start recording your contribution!
In order to save your recording as MP3, you'll have to install the LAME MP3 encoder as follows (if you haven’t already):
Windows
- For Windows Click Here
- When you have finished downloading LAME, unzip it and save the file lame_enc.dll anywhere on your computer.
- The first time you use the "Export as MP3" command, Audacity will ask you where lame_enc.dll is saved.
Mac OS
- For Mac OS 8/9 Click Here
- For Mac OS X Click Here
- When you have finished downloading, use Stuffit Expander to extract the files (This may happen automatically).
- Save the file called "LameLib" anywhere on your computer.
- The first time you use the "Export as MP3" command, Audacity will ask you where LameLib is saved.
Okay?
All okay? If it is, you can move on, choose an article and begin recording!
