WOW! That is a lot for a rookie like me!! But I will work through it next go round.
It is stunning quality of help you all have offered... it is humbling.
Many thanks (seems hardly enough). And thanks in advance from those who will hopefully benefit in the future from this thread!!!

Re: MP3 file size
Thanks, Koz! It didn't make a difference. I'm thinking I'll just use the larger file this time, and record as wav next time

Re: MP3 file size
Thanks, WC, but Mono was already the setting, so it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Re: MP3 file size
Many thanks, Koz and Steve! You are both correct!! :D I didn't understand MP3s AND the original was Mono. But if the original is Mono, then why did it play in both speakers? Apparently because no one would ever want a single speaker MP3, so all players (or audacity) split the sound into two speakers...

MP3 file size
I recorded a speech I gave into a Marantz recorder with settings: MP3-128 bit rate, Sample rate 44.1k The talk lasted 1 hour and 20 minutes. The sound quality is excellent. The file size is 39.4MB. I used Audacity to 1.2.6 to edit out about 10 minutes. Then I NORMALIZED it. Then I exported it to MP3...
