Not happening ... your going to have to use something like Adobe Audition, Cool Edit Pro, Windows Media Player, iTunes, Etc. to convert it to MP3 .... Wich version of live do you have ?

If you're looking for a free solution, check out Audacity.

Itunes + ableton is a great combination... I think you can even drag and drop out of itunes now and into ableton

The mp3 converter in itunes is nice and easy to use as well, the main issue you'll run into is converting to Wav to start with. It's gonna eat up a lot of disk space for a while, until you get it into mp3...

Use LAME. Getting SoundForge, or even bothering to download Audacity = overkill.

while we are here.......when the track is done

Say I set the out ceiling on the maximizer to -0.3. I render a track in .wav and nothing goes above -0.3. When I convert to mp3 (soundforge) I sometimes get clips at 0db. Why? How much headroom should one leave for the mp3 conversion?
