:Preparation of WAV file for voice broadcast
Preparation of WAV file for voice broadcast FORMAT WAV files must be in PCM format, 8-bit Mono. RECORDING SOFTWARE If you are not familiar with audio recording software, or do not have the facilities to do this already, we recommend you use WavePad Audio Editing Software from NCH Software (http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/index.html). This software can be downloaded for free, or you can get a paid version as well. WAVEPAD USAGE You can use WavePad software to record the file on your computer. The software will not prompt you for the setting of the parametres until after you have recorded it. Once you have recorded the file, and you hit “Save As”, it will then prompt you for the parametres. Select “PCM Uncompressed”, “8000 Hz, 8 Bits, Mono”. Play the recording back. If it doesn’t sound crisp and clear (perhaps your microphone is not the best quality), then try 11025 Hz. HEADSET/MICROPHONE We recommend you use a headset/microphone that can be plugged into your computer for the recording. Using the microphone built into the computer will not usually produce the best results. The type of headset that works fine can be purchased at most electronic stores for about $20.
