How to make DF .ogg (and similar length charts) under 5 MB.

Postby BNS.Adrian on Wed Mar 07, 2012 5:05 pm

Hello, I have been having a problem where I put a song through the .ogg length patch, and then try to play it on my machine, but it will say the file is too big and needs to be under 5 MB. I'm aware that the audio file needs to be compressed, although I'm not quite sure how to go about it. What program would be ideal for this?

Go to preferences in Audacity and lower the ogg export quality until it's below 5 MB (it might sound really bad)

also mix it down to mono if it's in stereo.

Sorry to sound n00b, but I went into preferences and I couldn't find an option where I can lower the ogg export quality, obviously this was a mistake on my part, but yeah I'm not 100% sure what to do still. =S
