Problem rendering to mp3

I normally only use WAV. However to send music via email I need mp3. When I try to render to mp3, Reaper tells me I need to download LAME. I've done this and downloaded libmp3lame-3.99.5x64 and lamedll-MOD3.99.5 but Reaper still wont render. What is wrong? BTW I'm in England.
 
Hi Tim
A lot have problems with this? :rolleyes:
It varies where you place Lame (and the version of course?,,If you're using 64bit Reaper make sure you use 64bit Lame!,,it's surprising the number that get this wrong!) I put it
in the 'User Plugins Folder' & never have any probs!

By the way if you want to send wav files (My email has small max file size?) I use 'We Transfer' it's free & easy to use!.

I haven't yet managed to get mp3 going in Reaper, but after your advice I got it to work in Audacity, so I was able to convert the file in Audacity.
