Menus

Applications Menu Preferences This menu item opens the Preferences dialog. File Menu Open Opens MP3, AAC/M4A/MP4, AIFF or Wave files for playing. The files will show up in the track list for easy access to them the next time you start the program. You may also open Ogg and FLAC files provided you download a free framework here (requires OS X 10.3.9 or higher): http://www.ronimusic.com/miscdownload.htm You may also open files by double clicking on them in the Finder, dragging files into the program window from the Finder or iTunes, or drag a file over the Amazing Slow Downer icon. Save song as AIFF/MP3/QuickTime/AAC/M4A file Save the current song displayed in the track list as the selected file type. Only the portion set with the locator boxes (Start and End) will be saved and the current settings for Stretch, Pitch, Mix and EQ is used. You may also set the number of repetitions of the set loop that should be saved. Clicking the General Settings button lets you change the current settings (Sample Frequency etc) before saving. If the file type you want to save is MP3/QuickTime/AAC/M4A, clicking the Encoding Settings button lets you change various encoding settings. To be able to encode to MP3 files you need to download a free library file called "LameEncoder.dylib". It may be downloaded at various places, here is one site to download it from: http://www.geocities.com/ragedwolf123/now.htm Amazing Slow Downer also supports the free Lame framework: http://www.ktunes.net/wiki/index.php/Lame You can also use the file "LameLib-Carbon.sit" available here (PPC mac's only): http://spaghetticode.org/lame/ The downloaded and expanded file (LameLib) should be placed in the /Library/Application Support/ folder. When saving files, please note that the volume control on the main screen has no effect. This is intentional so that the files are saved with full volume and not with a possible zero or low volume. The downside is that when saving procesed files, this may result in distorted sound if you add to much of the EQ. So please check the sound with the volume control set to maximum before saving.
