I'm not sure if it's any other app other than the one Samson uses when it connects to my computer (Windows). The Samson mic apparently records in m4a only. I changed the file name to read as mp3. I don't have any other details.

Audacity required?

To do recordings for Librivox, is the Audacity software required? I have AVS Audio Editor already, and have used it to make voice demos already, for other venues.

I recently retired from my county hospital, working 13.7 years as a Health Service Rep in a call center. But I am currently too young to retire from working. I have received many compliments over the years since 2000, when I started medical office work, that I have a very nice and professional voice...
