bakelmion Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I am not an audiophile. I use the home version of Wave Pad for the rare times I need to edit some audio files. My current issue is that, as a hospice volunteer, I've recently recorded 85 hours of a patient's life story which he wishes to leave as a legacy for his infant grandson. His gr 192.168.1.254 andson is unlikely to be able to listen to or appreciate this material for perhaps 20 years and probably more. We're also concerned about the rapid pace of changing technology and the equipment used to access it. We are seeking advice on how to best preserve these recordings so that, even if it skips a generation or two, someday someone could come across them and benefit. I have been present for all 85 hours and this material will be a truly remarkable inheritance for whoever finds it and takes the time to mine it. We've used a Tascam DR-40 recorder and made .wav files, mostly in mono using the bui 10.0.0.0.1 lt-in mics, although we did a few hours in stereo using two lapel mics. I'm looking for good advice expressed in simple terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannR Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 In this case, what you can do is add the audio files and export this to an audio format that allow you to keep this information. could be MP3. Since you are expecting to keep this for a long time, that would be the only option. or keep the original file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
