- Also accessed by: then choosing AMR (narrow band) Files (FFmpeg) from the Save as type dropdown menu. In this case the options dialog will appear in the center of the Export Multiple dialog.
FFmpeg is not shipped with Audacity but you can download it and then export as AMR (NB) by following these instructions. |
AMR-NB Export Setup
- Bit Rate: Choose a bit rate from 4.75 kbps to 12.2 kbps (defaults to 12.2 kbps). Higher bit rates give higher quality but produce larger files.
Due to the format specification, AMR-NB files are always exported at 8000 Hz sample rate irrespective of the Audacity Project Rate. |
