hello once again…

i already have a small program to record voice.. but at the moment i can only record and then playback.. the sound data is on a buffer… i have to transform it in wav and then convert to mp3? or i can pass from the buffer directly to mp3?

You should be able to send it straight to lame. Please read the docs for lame to determine if your recorded data is in a format usable by lame.

Look at the "record" sample program that comes with the FMOD api.

i presume u are talking about this? fmodapi375ce.zip

Yes.

I was able…with some help.. of implementing a small program on windows mobile to record and then playback what i record…

but now .. can i convert what i recorded to a mp3 file and save it on the directory i want?

Encoding is beyond the scope of FMOD. You’ll need to feed the data you receive from recording to an encoder library like lame :

http://lame.sourceforge.net

so i can’t save the "audio data" each time i record something?

i have to use the LAME library to convert it and then save it?
