Lastly, I record my podcasts in MONO. You probably will too unless you feature music as a major component of your podcast. Don’t worry too much, though, 16 bit is still “CD quality” and will be fine. You may find some mics limit recording to 16 bit. Again, you can google for the reasons, but if you can swing it, go for it. Let’s set the BIT DEPTH at 24 if you can. The reasons why can be googled – but in general, 44100kHz is a standard delivery format, and perfectly fine for recording voices (as opposed to say, a chamber orchestra).

The WAVEFORM view is where you can edit individual audio files – chop out sections you don’t need, fade in/out, add FX, etc. First thing to notice are the EDITOR VIEWS in the top-left, WAVEFORM & MULTITRACK.
