No, I know how to upload to Bandcamp. I know how to upload to Soundcloud. What I'm asking is mostly how to get it to work. I have tried uploading to Soundcloud, and it would crept counting time up, and up. It wouldn't stop. I tried to upload to band camp, found the files weren't FLAC, and couldn't change it to FLAC. this is what i need help with.

Maybe you first need to convert your wave/aiff file to a format that is bandcamp/soundcloud friendly? To know which format, check the bandcamp/soundcloud support pages. To convert the audio files, use a good converter tool. MuLab itself cannot yet save audio file as Flac or Mp3. (it can load mp3 samples, but not yet save)

I tried to convert to the files out of mulab, in a flac changer, and it failed. Is this a glitch, or should i find another file type to use?

I mean I tried to convert the flies out of the mulab folder. I first visited this website: http://audio.online-convert.com/convert-to-flac . I then clicked "choose file" under the "Upload your audio". I had a drop down menu, and went to my "all items" menu, and searched "mulab", and it brought up all of my mulab files. I then attempted to convert the audio, by clicking "convert audio". I waited for a little, about a minute, and got a message back saying that "the audio failed to convert", with a subtext I don't remember. I then proceeded to try and upload to soundcloud. The audio upload worked, but the audio length wouldn't sync correctly. It went from the correct length, up by a minute, up past the 10 min mark. I then realized it was not going to work, and deleted the files i attempted to upload.

Why not try to upload directly without converting the audio file?
Soundcloud supports wave/aiff files, why do you want to use flac format?

Bandcamp. So I can make money.

If you took the time to visit bandcamp support you would see it takes wav and aiff: https://bandcamp.com/help/uploading

I've been uploading stuff to Soundcloud as MP3 44Khz 128kbps for a while now. I use Goldwave to convert the WAV export from Mulab. I was using MP3's at 32Khz 320kbps but these files are considerably larger than the 44Khz version and don't sound much different. I don't go for top rate uploads on Soundcloud in case anyone's downloading it. I reserve the best quality WAV's for Bandcamp where it has to be purchased.
I MAKE FREE MUX SYNTHS

You can also use the free WinLame to convert to mp3: https://winlame.sourceforge.io/

I did, and I still cannot upload. I have been doing it for awhile, and it doesn't work. What file does MULAB create?

I'm confused. Does it change files out of mp3, or to mp3.

Thank you, but this confuses me. What should I do, because I don't particularly want to use Soundcloud i we can.
