Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder
My church still uses tapes to record the sermons/sunday school stuff. So I found (above) free software which allows one to convert audio cassette to digital, then export such a file to MP3.
A few questions:
For a 40 minute message, how big should an MP3 file be? The one I did was 38.8mb. Is that too large?
If so, how do I reduce it?
When I uploaded the MP3 to my website, so that a few people could download it, it's a LONG wait to download...not like the sermons at SermonAudio. We're talking 5-7 minute wait.
Any suggestions?
