[ardour-users] newbie: exporting to mp3

[Andy Joslin]

I have been accused of overkill, but the mid-range goal is to do CD- 
mastering of live performances, with really quick turn around time, and to 
also make these performances available online. Our record mixer is reaching 
the end of it's useful life, and if ardour performs... It may replace it 
altogether.

Overkill... maybe... what can I say? I'm a geek!
