MP3 output encode?

[sephult]

I was curious if there was ever a plan, or possibly a way to encode the REC out as MP3.
I share works and examples many times as MP3 because of limitations of sending size.

I don't necessarily like to do so, but a must in many cases because raw .wav is too big, or popular sharing does not accept .wav.

Would be nice to be able to do a process to encode, when the recording is stopped...even using free Lame encoders.
I do so now using Sonar, had me thinking if there was anyway to trigger, with the current output filename.

Unfortunately probably not because the conversion is CPU hungry and not suitable in a realtime context.
The audio in usine is recorded in realtime.
moreover, they are so many audio editors which can do that very easily, so....

I guess I could script a LAME encoder to do the MP3 conversion as a patch. Just for convenience.
I agree there always are so many audio editors. I just find myself in Hollyhock more than any of them
