I have the track ripped, but I want ot encode or compress it now.
How do I make EAC look in a hard drve folder? It seems to only be able to look at my CD drive.

Use an external compressor (lame 3.92) and do it from your shell.
Right I have EAC pointign to my Lame compressor, I jsut don't know how to point EAC to my ripped file.
The CD has a lto fo scratched and it never seesm to rip and encode, like I normally do. So, I set EAC up to just copy the file. The WAV sounds fine, so I assume it did what it could with error correction etc... Now, I want to turn that wav into an mp3. I am sure I could DL razor lame or something, but I feel certain EAC has a meathod built in where I can encode from an already ripped file. But, I can't figure it out.

 
Like I said, just use the Lame.exe you already have to compress it from your shell. It will take a wav input from command line.
 
If you want to use EAC, just go to the tools menu and choose "Compress WAVs". If you don't have that option then you're running an old version of EAC and should update.

Just download the wrecked song. 🙂 You already own a licence for it. (at least in Canada that's how things work)
