Voice recording programs.

[Yo-Man-SUP]

Hi... I'm a totally n00b guy trying to learn flash and such, and um... yeah... now that we've got that out of the way...

I was wondering what voice recording programs most flash animators use in their work. See, I've tried to use the default one that comes with windows, but when I save it I notice that the file is pretty damn big.

Is that the case for all sound recording programs, or is their a way to like, lower the quality and file size?

Sorry if this is a total n00b question, but I checked all over the forums and couldn't find anything. @_@;

Thanks in advance.

Yea, Windows Sound Recorder saves it as a huge file because it's a .wav, which are huge. I suggest getting Audacity. It's free and a great recording device. Download it for free at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/. Then you have to get a "Lame Encoder", which will save it as a .mp3. Just search google for it, it's also free. Then, after recording, go to "Export as .mp3" and then find your lame enoder. Then, save it as a .mp3 with Audacity.
