Re: How can I export an AAC file directly from SPlat? 2016/02/04 12:27:55 (permalink)
I managed to set up a Lame encoder configuration today with help from this thread.

Here's the resulting Registry entry:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CakewalkExtAudioEncoders\{04C383C3-5BCC-4024-B88C-48067E278AB6}]
"Name"="LAME 256"
"Description"="LAME 256"
"Path"="C:\\Program Files\\Cakewalk\\Shared Utilities\\LAME"
"Extension"=".mp3"
"CommandLine"="lame %I -b 256 -m s -h -c -V 1 -B 320 %O"
"InProcess"=dword:00000000
"KeepWaveFile"=dword:00000000
"ModalEncoder"=dword:00000001
"SourceFormat"=dword:00000000

I downloaded the 64-bit Lame files from

https://onedrive.live.com...p;cid=DF413F5445183B18

While doing this, I ran across some problems:

(1) The Sonar Help file entry for this utility doesn't cover all the fields. I'll report this.

(2) The Source Format dropdown doesn't work for me. It has no values except FLAC. I had to use the Registry to change the value to 0.

Does anybody else see the dropdown problem?

I do! I tried to setup a LAME external encoder setting using the Cakewalk external audio encoder tool, but the Source Formut dropdown menu is bugged. At first it lists "Wave", but when you save and go back it shows "FLAC", no way to change it. And it does actually create FLAC files, I can see that because I hit the 'keep source file" option.. and my encoder cannot handle FLAC file inputs. So, the entire tool is useless now, it seems...
 
In a related post you mentioned you found a workaround for this, could you tell me what it is? I saw it here:
http://forum.cakewalk.com...-Encoder-m3420721.aspx
 
And do you have a follow-up on the problem report CWBRN-45857?

This is a very old thread. I suggest you start a new one specific to your problem.

I realise that it's an old thread... Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I'd rather try to see if I can find the answer using the information that's already there to avoid unnecessary new posts.. If this doesn't work I'll post a new one! Thanks for the advice.
