I have been looking to upload some of my remixes to YouTube but I can't seem to find a good method to convert the file from WAV to MP4. Anyone mind pointing me in the right direction for that?

Have you tried Audacity ?

No, where can I download that and how do I use it to convert WAV to MP4?

To convert a .wav file to .mp3 (not .mp4), you have Audacity : http://www.audacityteam.org/

It's more than a convertor; it's an audio editor.

If I remember correctly, you will also download LAME MP3 encoder, it allows Audacity to export MP3 files: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_ ... .html#lame

Once Audacity and LAME MP3 encoder are installed, you can open your file into Audacity, and export it in .mp3.

Yep. That's correct.
You have to download Lame MP3 Encoder and put it into Audacity, so you can make
audio files, into mp3 format.

Newbies take note. Ha! Ha!

That was a typo, I meant mp4.

I do not think Audacity converts to .mp4.

There are many converters, both online and offline, from .wav to .mp4. Googling "convert wav to mp4" will find them. I can't recommend any particular one because I've never used mp4, it being mainly a video format.

MP4 is not an music ( sound) codec. It's a video codec.

I have made a video in Blender for my music track, in blender I can choose mp4 for the video format.

( and import my wave file from LMMS )

I hope this clears thing up.
