Help with converting Lolla Music Files

[porchdweller]

Hey Everyone,

I downloaded the Lolla show and my experience with Flac is limited.  I try to convert to .wav and it sounds like static.  If anyone can give me tips or the correct process to convert this to listening pleasure it is greatly appreciated.  I apologize for my ignorance on this matter but would really love to relive the show and am not converting properly or something.  HELP< PLEASE.

First of all, do you have Flac Front End program that looks like this:

I'm almost positive this is it here:

Just go to that page and click on this:

Download FLAC frontend 1.7 (30 kb, freeware)

Once you have the program open (it will look like the picture above) you just need to drag your flac files into the window (where you see the list of .wav files) and after all of your flac files are in there, just click the "Decode" button and it will create wav files in the same folder that your flac files are in.

One other thing, I can't remember but I think once you have dragged all of the flac files into the white "window" you still need to highlight all of them with your mouse before you hit "Decode".  

Send me back a message if you have any issues.

No, you don't have to.

btw, once you burn a copy of the wave files I usually convert them to mp3s so that I can save them without having to buy a new external harddrive every month.  Here's a program that let's you do that:
