Connect LAME to Plogue?

[trapvector]

Hi Everyone,

I am wondering if it is conceivable to connect an MP3 or AC3 transcoder to Plogue Bidule, so that as it converts 2 channel to 6 channel, the connected transcoder would shrink the multichannel wav at the same time.
Does anyone think that's possible? I like how you can wire it so that you can hear the 2 channel track as it's being converted, so I thought that just maybe...

I don't think it's possible since lame is a standalone program and bidule takes vst plugins. You're right though, it would be cool. Maybe you could bring it up on the plogue forum and perhaps someday they'll implement some hook to lame.
