How do I get the latest version of AUDACITY to convert from WAV to MP3?












0















Would like to convert my audio files in WAV format to MP3 format. I learned that this can be done with AUDACITY. But, using AUDACITY 2.1.2 I could not get the response that the instructions said I should.



If there is a better way to convert from WAV to MP3 I'd be glad to try.

    Audacity has been able to convert from WAV to mp3 since time immemorial. The current version in the repos is 2.2.2-1.

    Seems like a classic XY Problem. You seem want to convert audio files, and there are many ways to do that without Audacity. But instead you are asking about how to implement your chosen (complex, difficult) course of action.

    Sound Converter (soundconverter) from the default Ubuntu repositories is much better than Audacity for converting wav to mp3.
