Here's the original post:



<< I have Exact Audio Copy. I downloaded the LAME source. I have MS Visual C++. Now, what the heck do I do to use LAME with EAC? Thanks. >>



I just want to be able to use the LAME codec with Exact Audio Copy, as recommended by many people and the Anandtech Guides. It seems that the only version of LAME I can get my hands on is just the source code, so what do I have to do to get the compiled versions? I'm not sure what to compile.
 
Go here, R3MIX, and read up about lame and eac, cdex and more. you can also get lame from one of the various links from that site, i would post a link, but forgot what it was 😛.
 
You can get the latest copy of EAC from the author's website. Both self installing or compilable versions are available there.

A good tutorial for EAC can be found here. Andre even recommends this site.
 
Get the compiled executable for LAME 3.91 here.. Get the latest version of EAC (09b1) here.

Make a folder like this- C:\Program Files\LAME and unzip the LAME download into that folder. Then run the EAC download, and when it is done, start EAC, go to the "EAC" menu, and choose the configuration wizard. Follow the instructions, and it will set LAME up automatically for you, along with other key settings.

Piece of cake.
