Audacity and iTunes—Making Not-LAME MP3s
LibriVox For Example
LibriVox is entirely run by volunteers. The majority of them read and record texts in the public domain, and make them available in audio format, for free. They are stupendously dedicated and are accustomed to helping a steady flow of new volunteers get started.The amount of free information for those starting out in voice recording and editing with Audacity is phenomenal.
