In that case I'll stick with my first answer: "WAV (Microsoft) signed 16-bit PCM"

PITCH (not speed) it down to a reasonable frequency, ex 300 hz, (around d#), it outputs a triangle wave.

That usually works for me.

Doesn't work for me. It gives me a dirty sine wave, which is what I would expect.

What is the difference between 16 and 32 bit? It's the number of binary digits used for each audio sample. If you are looking in Audacity's "Preferences > Quality", leave it set at "32-bit float". If you're looking at the "File > Export Audio" options, you want "W...
