Setting Up to Record a Podcast in Audacity

Choose your File Export Type

Audacity File Formats Tab

Screencap by Brian Bertucci

Last, click the File Formats tab and select the Uncompressed Export Format that you want to use. Most Windows users will pick 16 bit WAV files, while Macintosh users may wish to choose 16 bit AIFF if they are planning to import the file into other Mac audio software later.

Click OK, and you should be ready to set you levels for recording.
