Ok, I can't figure this out for the life of me. I've got three tracks on the mix, an intro, outro and the spoken word. I want to export to mp3 so I can put it on my website. I can get it to iTunes in AIFF and then convert to mp3, but surely there is a way to do it in GarageBand, right? Also, is there a way in GB to edit the iD3 tags and add the album art and all that, again before it gets into iTunes?

The share menu only gives me three options, iTunes, iWeb, and to disk. None of those give .mp3 options.

You can export to iTunes, then in iTunes, convert to mp3.

He's trying to avoid that method. He's trying to do it in GarageBand only.

I'd help but have no idea. I only am here to learn what you do.

Sorry - don't think you can do that.

Well that's kind of silly. Oh well, I'll do it the long way then. Thanks for the suggestions y'all.

you can also use quicktime pro to do it if you have the right codec. it might save you a step of having to import to itunes.

sorry, i meant convert the aiff in quicktime pro. it saves you the step of setting up a garageband project and importing the aiff file to convert it to an mp3.

Except that I'm pretty sure that he's making the podcasts in GarageBand.

Correct. I actually record the spoken word track at church by connecting my XP laptop into the soundboard. I record and export an MP3 via Audacity in Windows. I then put that track into GarageBand along with the intro and outro music tracks (both MP3) and edit the podcast together. I'm just looking for a simple way to export to MP3 and it looks like my only option is to export to iTunes and convert there.

That's a complicated workflow. Is there a reason you cannot record the spoken word track into GarageBand directly (I assume it is because your Mac is not a laptop and you're foing this remotely, but I thought I'd ask)?
